AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A young woman's solo journey from Leamington to London by train exposes her to a travelling companion who compels her to cut his hair and beard by threatening to kiss her. He changes from a hunter's guise to a priest's disguise and escapes the police who came to arrest him upon his arrival in London. Slight; interesting, with regards to her horror of touch; amusing in parts. (PB)
