1 Winning an Heiress! Herbert Herbert , 1881 single work short story romance
— Appears in: The Australian Journal , September vol. 17 no. 196 1881; (p. 26-28)
English romance of nobility. An impoverished handsome nobleman is convinced to win an heiress to retrieve his fortunes. He visits Lady Derwentwater's country house, openly avowing his attentions, and wins the love of his lady Maud Reading against her scornful intentions.
