Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Claverings, Vol. 2
And as to her money! If that were the stumbling-block, might it not be well that the first overture should come from her? Could she not find words to tell him that it might all be his? Could she not say to him, Harry Clavering, all this is nothing in my hands. Take it into your hands, and it will prosper. Then it was that she went to her desk, and attempted to write to him. She did write to him a completed note, offer ing herself and all that was hers for his acceptance. In doing so, she strove hard to be honest and yet not over bold to be affectionate and yet not unfeminine. Long she sat, holding her head with one hand, while the other attempted to use the pen which would not move over the paper. At length, quickly it flew across the sheet, and a few lines were there for her to peruse. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
