The Marriage of Elinor, by Margaret O. Oliphant (1828 - 1897)

Who is the man? asks Mrs. Dennistoun of her nephew, John Tatham. Elinor has decided to marry. But who is the man she has chosen? No one seems to know. Is he of good character? Does he have a "past"? Or even a wife? (Summary by LynneT)

Hi and welcome to Librivox! I will sign you up in the catalog. I will just assign chapter 8 for now as this is your first recording, but once that is submitted, you will be free to claim any more open sections.
