The Argosy, Vol. 30 July to December, 1880 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Argosy, Vol. 30: July to December, 1880 The world seemed to take it for granted that Miss Winter would marry. As yet there was no rumour of her being engaged, but as there were several eligible men, bachelors, in the neighbourhood, speculators were much exercised in their minds as to the chances of this, that, or the other one becoming the favoured individual. They all fervently hoped that Mrs. Carlyon would not drag her niece away to London, as she seemed to wish to do, or else there would be no knowing what might become of her. It would be dreadful for such a prize to fall to the lot of a stranger. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
