OUTLOOK.—"The book is refreshingly good. It has a good deal of stuff in it, and a great deal of affable and witty writing; and it will bear reading more than once, which, in these days, is saying much."

THE LOVES

OF THE

LADY ARABELLA

By M. E. SEAWELL

SPEAKER.—"A story told with so much spirit that the reader tingles with suspense until the end is reached.... A very pleasant tale of more than common merit."

PALL MALL GAZETTE.—"It is short and excellent reading.... Old Peter Hawkshaw, the Admiral, is a valuable creation, sometimes quite 'My Uncle Toby'.... The scene, when the narrator dines with him in the cabin for the first time, is one of the most humorous in the language, and stamps Lady Hawkshaw—albeit, she is not there—as one of the wives of fiction in the category of Mrs. Proudie herself.... The interest is thoroughly sustained to the end.... Thoroughly healthy and amusing."
