CYNTHIA'S CHAUFFEUR

By LOUIS TRACY

The scene opens in London on Derby day. A lovely American girl and her
English chaperon had engaged a chauffeur to take them in his car on a
thousand miles run for ten days. On his way to keep the appointment
the car met with an accident, and a young Englishman, the son of an
earl, happened to be in the vicinity. The chauffeur had once been in
his employ, and when he saw his distress at the possible loss of a
good customer he thought it would be a fine lark to go himself, in the
guise of a chauffeur, and take the ladies on their journey.

The girl was beautiful and the pseudo chauffeur was young and
romantic, and one of the strangest of love stories began.
