THE DEAVES AFFAIR
Hulbert Footner
This is a story of Evan Weir’s wooing, and a very
strenuous and original pursuit it proved. In fact the
lady of his choice so far dissembled her love, as frequently
to threaten his further existence. At the time, Evan was
acting as secretary to old Simeon Deaves, famed as the
possessor of the “ tightest wad” in New York.
Now certain individuals had designs upon old Simeon
and his hoard, and amongst them was the forcible and
beautiful object of Evan’s affections.
Like The Owl Taxis, it goes with a splendid snap, and is
packed with exciting and humorous incidents.
ROSEANNE
Madame Albanesi
The author calls this an “ old-fashioned story.” It
does not concern itself with sex or any other problems,
but is just a lively, well-told life of a very fascinating
heroine who has plenty of adventures sentimental and
otherwise.
