His daughter Muriel didn't share his views on pedigrees. He favored a young society man to be her future husband, but she reserved her smiles for a young businessman with no "family connections" to recommend him. Mr. Forsythe did not approve of Brown, and the young merchant was peremptorily refused. "He is not of our station in life, dear," he told his daughter, "and is unfit to marry you." "I don't believe that Paul's family is any better than Bob's," she retorted scornfully. The father wrote to an old genealogist to trace the family history of the two men. The genealogist's report stated that Devere, the young society man, was descended from one of the French Kings, while Brown had an ancestor who was hanged for stealing hogs. The genealogist gave the report to his stenographer to deliver. She had reason to like Brown, and when the report was delivered to Mr. Forsythe it was so altered that he ordered Devere out of the house, and gladly gave his consent to his daughter's engagement to Brown.
