Book Description
The author was a Hungarian-British national and is best remembered for "The Scarlet Pimpernel". This book is subtitled 'An Episode in the life of Mr. Thomas Betterton as told by his friend John Honeywell.' It begins with a letter, written by Mr. Honeywell to Mistress Mary Saunderson. In this letter, he pleads the cause of his friend Thomas Betterton, who wishes to marry her. She apparently, is hesitating because certain jealous persons have been spreading rumors about him. Thomas Betterton was England's best-known actor during the Restoration period and was moreover a friend of Charles I.

Book Description
An Episode in the Life of Mr. Thomas Betteron as told by His Friend John. "After that memorable Day, Mistress, we were like naughty Children who were being punished for playing truant out of School. For Weeks and Months our Lives went on with dreary monotony, with never a chance of seeing Something of that outside World of which we had caught a glimpse. You continued to sew and to scrub and to be at the beck and call of a Scold. I went on copying legal Documents till my very Brain appeared atrophied, incapable of a single happy Thought or of a joyous Hope."
