Summary "The Silver Butterfly" by Mrs. Wilson Woodrow is a romance novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Robert Hayden, an adventurous man returning to New York City after years spent in remote locations, including South America and Africa, where he built railroads. Reimmersing himself in the bustling city life, he becomes enchanted by Marcia Oldham, a beautiful and elusive woman whose mysterious aura captivates him, sparking a narrative filled with romance and intrigue. At the start of the novel, Hayden contemplates his return to New York, feeling both excitement and apprehension about reintegrating into society. He connects with his cousin Kitty Hampton during a stroll, who hints at her concern for Marcia Oldham, suggesting that she may be engaged to another man, Wilfred Ames. Their conversation reveals Hayden's infatuation with Marcia, whom he believes to be a "fairy princess." After attending a performance together, Hayden spots Marcia and is drawn to her striking presence adorned with beautiful silver butterfly motifs, ultimately leading him to a chance encounter with her the very next day. The opening chapters set the stage for a complex interplay of romance, social themes, and the pursuit of love amidst societal expectations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
