Excerpt from The Greatest Heiress in England, Vol. 1 of 3
In this town there was a street, and in this street there was a house, and in this house there was a room - After this fairy-tale fashion we may be permitted to begin this history. The house which was called No. 6 inf - the Terrace, was in no way remarkable externally among its neighbours; but within the constitution of the family was peculiar. The nominal master of the house was a retired clerk of the highest respectability, with his equally respectable wife.
