Hussey, Eyre. Miss Badsworth, M. F. H. [†]$1.50. Longmans.

Hugo Badsworth, master of Cranston Hounds has an old-maid sister and a niece, both of the same name, Lavinia. Upon his death, a will, made in jest, is discovered stipulating that unless Miss Lavinia Badsworth follows the hounds upon certain occasions his money is to go to a reprobate nephew. The niece fulfills the terms of this will for her aunt and all is well.
