Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Lad Felix: A Tragedy of the Ne Temere
No word or suggestion of offence to any member of the Roman Catholic Church, lay or clerical, is intended. The aim of the author is merely to show what privations and hardships must be endured by hundreds of helpless women and children should the application of the Ne Temere in Canada be con tinned. Once this is appreciated the Canadian hierarchy will no doubt seek to have the law repealed; and if this story helps, even in an unimportant way, to present to the minds of its readers a true picture of the home-wrecking and unhappiness that must follow in the wake of the decree, should it not soon be voided, the narrative will have served its purpose.
