At the Councillor's; or, A Nameless History

AT THE COUNCILLOR'S;
OR,
A NAMELESS HISTORY.
E. MARLITT.
TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN BY MRS. A. L. WISTER,
TRANSLATOR OF THE GREEN GATE, THE SECOND WIFE, ONLY A GIRL, HULDA, THE OLD MAM'SELLE'S SECRET, ETC.
PHILADELPHIA: J. B. LIPPINCOTT COMPANY 1893.
Entered, according to Act of Congress, in the year 1876, by J. B. LIPPINCOTT & CO., In the Office of the Librarian of Congress at Washington.
NOTE.
In Germany, the title of Councillor ( Rath ) can be purchased by those who achieve a certain eminence in their several walks of life, or it may be conferred as an honour by the Prince or King. The merchant who gives the name to this romance is thus Councillor of Commerce , a compound word so unwieldy in English that the translator preferred to render In the house of the Councillor of Commerce by At the Councillor's.
