Ray's Daughter

Ray's Daughter opens with a scene on a railway train in Oakland where many workers are bickering with their boss. Miss Ray from Fort Leavenworth is the Filipina daughter of an army officer who gets into adventures heading west. Excerpt: “The answer was a smiling nod of assent as the younger lady buried her lovely, dark face in the flowers set before her by the assiduous waiter, and Stuyvesant felt sure she was trying to control an inclination to laugh. «Well, you must excuse me if I have been a little—slow,” said the elder in evident perturbation. «You see—we meet such queer people traveling—sometimes. Don't you find it so?” The dark face was dimpling now with suppressed merriment.”
