AbstractHistoryArchive Description

On St Valentine's Day Molly Aylward receives a photograph from Travers Mortimer, recently jilted by another girl. Her sister counsels caution but that night he proposes to her, on the strength of her photograph which he received that day. They discover they have been victims of a forward girl's hoax but it brings romance to them. Pleasant domestic and social tale; light-hearted. (PB)
