Summary | "The Lady of the Ice: A Novel" by James De Mille is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The plot unfolds in Quebec and focuses on Lieutenant Alexander Macrorie and his friend Jack Randolph, both of whom find themselves tangled in a web of romantic complications, including a sudden engagement and the mysterious Lady of the Ice. The story promises a blend of adventure, romance, and humor as the characters navigate their entangled relationships and the challenges posed by their surroundings. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Lieutenant Macrorie as he reflects on his experiences in Quebec, a city filled with captivating Canadian women. Jack Randolph soon enters, seemingly troubled and out of sorts unlike his usual jovial self. As they converse, it becomes apparent that Jack is grappling with romantic dilemmas involving several women, including his engagement to Miss Phillips and a sudden affection for a widow named Mrs. Finnimore. This sets up a narrative filled with potential misunderstandings and dramatic moments, particularly when Jack proposes a desperate plan of elopement that complicates matters further. The opening portion establishes not only the characters' personalities and relationships but also foreshadows the trials they will face as the plot develops.
