A Prisoner of Love Polly was the daughter of missionaries living in China. Came the revolution. Polly was captured by Chinese bandits and held for ransom. Her terror was indescribable until she learned that the bandits were led by a white man—a young American—one of her own race to whom,she thought, she could turn for help. But she had yet to learn to what depths of degradation a white man can sink. The memory of those terrible days will remain with her to her dying day.
