The Argosy, Vol. 64

This September 1897 *Argosy* installment features the continuation of Sydney C. Grier's serial "Peace with Honour," following the romantic reconciliation between Dick (a British officer with a Victoria Cross) and Georgia (a female physician). Their dialogue on a mission verandah, where Dick presents Georgia with roses, establishes the emotional conflict: Dick's reluctance to accept Georgia's medical profession versus her commitment to her work. Georgia visits the royal palace to attend the Queen, whose eye surgery she performed. The Queen's recovery of sight succeeds, bringing celebration and royal gifts. Throughout, Georgia wrestles with balancing her professional ambitions against her romantic attachment, while investigating the source of a poison potentially used to harm Sir Dugald. The narrative blends domestic romance with colonial-era medical and political intrigue.
