James Durie, Master of Ballantrae and heir to old Lord Durrisdeer, is believed to have been killed at Culloden. Years later he returns to Scotland to find that he has forfeited his title, and that his younger brother Henry has married Alison Graeme, whom the Master had wished to make his wife. A bitter feud between the brothers ends in a duel, after which the Master is left for dead. He is, however, succoured by smugglers and taken to France where he recovers. Later he makes a second return to Scotland and finds that Henry is now Lord Durnsdeer. To avoid further strife between the brothers, Alison persuades her husband to leave Scotland secretly and go with her to her estate in New York. The Master, left behind with the old land-steward Ephraim Mackellar for company, is enraged to find himself duped. Mackellar will not tell him where Henry has gone, so the Master swears he will discover for himself, and pursue Henry with his vengeance. One wild night the Master startles old Mackellar by revealing that he knows where his brother has gone.

Five years ago Charles Fletcher , M.D., F.R.C.P., agreed to become Director of the Pneumoconiosis Research Unit of the Medical Research Council. So he set to work-in South Wales, where dust diseases among coal miners are very prevalent-knowing, he says, very little of the subject. Soon" he developed a warmth of personal enthusiasm for the given aim: to make the utmost contribution to lessening dust diseases by the application of scientific method in the field of medicine. Obstacles, of course, there are in plenty.
