Excerpt from Frank Merriwell's Secret Frank Merriwell, the all-round athlete of Yale, whose integrity and honest endeavor in the path of right and justice had made for him a host of friends, and as many enemies, had become involved in "an affair of the heart." So far as Merriwell was concerned, it had been brought about entirely unwittingly. It is a very fine thing for a young man to stop a runaway horse and save the life of a young girl - that's what Merriwell did. But when the young girl afterward sets the young man up as "her hero," complications are likely to follow - that's what Winnie Lee did. And then Inza Burrage came to New Haven for a visit. Frank and Inza had been friends at Fardale when Frank was a student at the military academy. Frank had told Winnie all about Inza, and their friendship. At first Winnie had been jealous, but she had put this feeling aside until Inza herself put in an appearance at New Haven. Then, when Inza had gone away, and the boys had pronounced her a "peach," and spoke of her as Merry's "best girl," all her old jealousy returned, and she resolved to use her arts to "cut out" Inza. Immediately Winnie seemed to forget there was such a person in the world as Frank Merriwell, and she took care to bestow her sweetest smiles on the very fellows Merry most disliked.
