 Danvers Jewels,' etc. 



Crown 8vo., 3s. 6d. 



' The many readers and admirers of that fine novel " Diana Tempest " will welcome a new book by 

 Miss Cholmondeley with interest and high expectation, and it is pleasant to be able to inform them 

 that they will not be disappointed. A most original and truthful sketch. The chief strength of the 

 clever English novelist is in agreeable moralizing and reflection, and Miss Cholmondeley's moralizings 

 are most admirable, informed by close observation of life and touched with a line point of irony.' — 

 Westminster Gazette.
