Excerpt from The Light of the Star: After the appointment with Miss Merival reachedhim (through the hand of her manager), young Douglass grew feverishly impatient of the long days which lay between. Waiting became a species of heroism. Each morning he reread his manuscript and each evening found him at the theatre, partly to while away the time, but mainly in order that he might catch some clew to thereal woman behind the shining mask. His brain was filled with the light of the star - her radiance dazzled him.
