There never was and never will be any-
thing like Newport in 1912. Women
squandered milions in fierce competi-
tion for social ascendancy, men made
tbrtunes and lost them over a glass of
brandy, and love was as cheap as a ser-
vant s wages.
Or so Ainelia Leighton had learned a
decade ago when she had to marry
against her will an English nobleman.
It was a fir exchange, the Fonr Hun-
dred agreed- Amelia s dowry tor the
duke s title. But the duke had turned
ont to he anything but fair, and in New-
port, divorce could be as expensive as
marriage.
Bnt then everything in Newport was
expensive. Samuel Van Nest s services,
for example, would cost thirty-five mil-
lion. That was the price he had given
J. P. Morgan for winning over-or break-
ing-five of the most powerful men in
American finance.
