Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Stanley Thorn, Vol. 2 of 3
He had, however, been signally unsuccessful in his search. He had described with artistical fervour the chief characteristics of the animated piece of antiquity in question to every gentle man with whom he had the honour of being acquainted; but, as they were unable to give him any specific clue to the discovery of the ancient, he felt quite at a loss; for he did not conceive it to be strictly correct to advertise him in the Hue and Cry, or, indeed, in any of the public papers, although he would with much willingness have offered a reward of five shillings for his apprehension, to be paid on conviction of his being the same man.
