AbstractHistoryArchive Description

An honest hardworking station manager wins the hand of the English owner's daughter and her father's approval. Thus he learns the hatred of the owner's dissipated nephew who plants a stolen cheque in his desk, has him dismissed and steals the letter to his fiancee. The nephew meets him at the rendezvous specified therein and stabs him - only recognizing then the depths of his iniquity ... competently written; British and class sentiments with honour above money etc. (PB)
