Excerpt from The Wyvern Mystery, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel
In the small breakfast parlour of Oulton, a pretty girl, Miss Alice Maybell, with her furs and wrappers about her, and a journey of forty miles before her - not by rail - to Wyvern, had stood up to hug and kiss her old aunt, and bid her good-bye.
"Now, do sit down again; you need not be in such a hurry - you're not to go for ten minutes or more," said the old lady; "do, there's a darling."
