AbstractHistoryArchive Description

English romance of calculating rivals. A relatively wealthy tea merchant's widow is rescued from a fortune-hunting suitor by her equally intent fortune-retaining brother, a retired officer living on her income. An elopement cunningly contrived by the suitor is equally cunningly foiled by the brother - but an earnest honest lawyer is the unexpected beneficiary. (PB)
