Yet the greatest value her travels had for her was in the possibility of their bringing her to a meeting with the missing heir.

It had been said that the mad duke and his son were somewhere on the Continent.

A wide field! Yet, on the arrival of Sir Lemuel and Miss Levison at any city, Salome's first thought was this: "Perhaps they are living here, and I shall see him." But she was always disappointed.

And at the end of a seven months' sojourn on the Continent, Sir Lemuel Levison brought his daughter back to London, only in time for the meeting of Parliament.
Only two years of Salome's probation was left--only two more seasons in London.

Her father's anxiety increased.
He sent for her chaperone again, and opened his house in Westbourne Terrace to all the world of fashion.
