and she grieved sincerely. In the course of time she consented to marry a young actor who was secretly murdered by Mary’s theatrical manager, himself in love with Mary. Years passed, and Mary was persuaded to engage herself to marry — this time to a young millionaire. Tragedy blighted this romance when the same theatrical manager added another murder to his crimes by killing Mary’s fiance.
