Mr. Jervis, Vol. 1 (of 3)

Mr. Croker writes amusingly when he describes Anglo-Indian life at some health station in Hindustan. There are two women in his story, the worldly Mrs. Langshire and the rather vulgar Mrs. Brande. Both are the wives of Indian officials. These ladies have nieces. Mrs. Langshire's niece is Lalla Paske, Mrs. Brande's Honor Gordon.
