Excerpt from Clevelanders
The failure of Miss Marlowe to assist the hos tess in obtaining a peculiar social notoriety merely serves to distinguish this particular din ner from a series of similar affairs. It was that night that George Graham first met Marian Longworth, or at least that was the occasion of their formal introduction. Previous to that he had seen her in the office of a friend, on the street, at the theater and in a dozen places per haps, and in each of them she had appealed to him as the uncommonly vivacious and pretty stenographer that she really was.
