AbstractHistoryArchive Description

In a North-Eastern Victorian township, an impecunious commission agent determines to marry for money - but courts the wrong woman. Amusing by-play over the lady's reading: Harriet Martineau's 'Political Economy'; John Stuart Mill etc. Humour of the carpet-bagger. (PB)
