Andrew the Glad

Andrew the Glad by Maria Thompson Daviess is about a popular young man who is stealing all the girls until David Kildare devises a plan to snatch his beloved Phoebe back. Excerpt: "There are some women who will brew mystery from the decoction of even a very simple life. Matilda is one of them," remarked the major to himself as he filled his pipe and settled himself before his high-piled, violet-flamed logs."
