Synopsis of ‘‘Rose Of The World.” Capt. Harry English is madly in love with his beautiful wife, Rosamond, but has never been able to arouse in her the deep affection he craved. In a sensational battle he proves a hero, but is slain by the natives, and his body is not recovered. Rosamond marries Sir Arthur Gerardine, lieutenant-governor of the province, a conceited and stupid man of 60, enormously wealthy who treats her as one of his many possessions. This awakens within her a realization of her love for her first husband, which continuously grows stronger. Major Raymond Bethune calls upon her with the information that he intends to commemorate the gallant services of Capt. English by a memoir of his life, and asks for English* s private papers for this purpose. As Rosamond looks at the treasures that remind her of her past happiness she is completely overcome and faints. An illness follows and the doctor orders her return to England. Sir Arthur plans to join her later, with Dr. Chatelard, a retired French physician, who is to assist in writing the memoir, Saif-u-din, Chatelard's native secretary, goes on ahead, and excites the distrust of Jani, Rosamond's Hindoo servant, by the marked interest displayed in her mistress.
