Misadventure Vol 2 Of 3 Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Misadventure, Vol. 2 of 3 I daresay it won't last long. Those good folks may con sole themselves with the thought that they'll see no more of me than I can help after my revered pre decessor has been laid to rest in the family vault. Once let me get possession, and they may all go to the deuce together for anything that I shall care. Cicely will have my full consent to marry whom she pleases then, and if she chooses Archie in preference to Chetwode I shall be most happy to escort her to church and give her away. I rejoice in promoting the welfare of my fellow creatures, so long as it doesn't interfere with my own.
