too often with
ill-directed generosity, she gave away her money, and became loved
of the poor around her. But in the way of society she saw no human
being, and rarely went beyond the valley in which stood the lonely
house to which she had been brought as a bride.
Of the further doings of Mr. Daniel Thwaite and his wife Lady
Anna,--of how they travelled and saw many things; and how he became
perhaps a wiser man,--the present writer may, he hopes, live to tell.
Printed by Virtue and Co., City Road, London.

Transcriber's note:
Obvious typographical errors have been corrected.
Specific changes in wording of the text are listed below.
Volume I, Chapter XIX, paragraph 43. The word "Lady" was changed
to "Aunt" in the sentence: Mrs. Lovel accompanied them, but AUNT
Julia made her farewells in the rectory drawing-room.
Volume II, Chapter XXXVII, paragraph 1. The word "was" was changed
to "were" in the sentence: The Countess had assented;--but when
the moment came, there WERE reasons against her sudden departure.
Volume II, Chapter XXXIX, paragraph 5. The word "or" was deleted
from the sentence: He pointed it out as a fact that the Earl had
not the slightest claim upon any portion of the estate,--not more
than he would have had if this money had come to Lady Anna from
her mother's instead of [OR] from her father's relatives.
Volume II, Chapter XXXIX, paragraph 6. The word "not" was deleted
from the sentence: If the Earl could get L10,000 a year by
amicable arrangement, the Solicitor-General would be shown to have
been right in the eyes of all men, and it was [NOT] probable,--as
both Mr. Goffe and Mr. Flick felt,--that he would not repudiate a
settlement of the family affairs by which he would be proved to
have been a discreet counsellor.
Volume II, Chapter XLV, paragraph 20. "David" was changed to
"Daniel" in the sentence: Neither on that occasion, or on either
of the two further callings, did any one get up in church to
declare that impediment existed why DANIEL Thwaite the tailor and
Lady Anna Lovel should not be joined together in holy matrimony.
