On a bluff of the Maryland coast stand a church a school a huddle of gravestones and an obelisk raised to the memory of Leonard Calvert These alone mark the site of St Mary s once the capital of the Palatinate It is near this little town about the middle of the seventeenth century that my story begins among the feuds then raging between Catholic and Protestant Cavalier and Roundhead Marylander and Virginian The Virginians of that day were but a generation removed from the pioneers who suffered in the massacre of 1622 and the sons and daughters of those early settlers whose lives were traced in The Head of a Hundred appear in the present romance The adventures of Romney Huntoon of the Brents and most of all of Christopher Neville and Elinor Calvert furnish the material of my story but I venture to hope that the reader will feel beneath the incidents and adventures that throbbing of the human heart which has chiefly interested me
