AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A railway accident on a journey to London introduces a briefless young solicitor to a pretty widow on her way to London to withdraw her capital from a supposedly unsafe bank. He assists her to reach the bank on time but later finds her reticule and £17 000 in the coach she took. Similar advertisements in the Times reunite them but not before he has been knocked out and robbed by a thief ... All ends happily. (PB)
