Lord Loveland 

 Discovers America 



This story is based on a new 

 idea — that of an English Mar- 

 quis, discredited, penniless and 

 cast adrift in America, fighting 

 his way from the bottom up. 



Mercenary and worthless at 

 first, he at length proves himself 

 to be a man, fit to marry the real 

 American girl, and to be a 

 worthy successor to his cousin 

 " Lady Betty." 

 By C. N. and A. M. WILLIAMSON 



Authors of "Lady Betty across the Water," 

 "The Chaperon," "The Car of Destiny," 

 "Set in Silver," etc. 



There seems little doubt that this book will equal or 

 outstrip all the authors' previous successes. 



The demand for it before publication 

 far exceeded that for "Set in Silver," 

 and the reorders for the book predict 

 an unusual sale.
