The third book concerning the lives of Hartley brothers and their adopted sister, Natalie, now the Duchess of Lonsworth, takes place in 1864. Robin Hartley, the Earl of Manningley falls madly in love with a beautiful young widow, Jonquil Jamison, Duchess of Allerton. Unfortunately Jonquil's marriage, though of only six weeks duration, was so appalling she is terrified to remarry, so although she falls in love with Robin she rebuffs his advances. In the meantime Robin's younger brother, Brian, now a successful artist living in Paris, has fallen hopelessly in love with Miss Jenny Helliwell, and she with him. Jenny, a young lady rescued from dire circumstances by Robin, is secretary to the brothers' grandmother, Lady Pepper. Alas, due to a misunderstanding upon their first meeting, Brian believes Jenny to be Robin's intended so, to Jenny's utter dismay and his eternal regret, does not declare his love. The two men's predicament is not aided by each believing that the other has designs on the lady he loves. But after a spring and summer of torment at balls in London, the races and a church fte at Epsom they all return to their homes in Yorkshire where two startling incidents occur that change their lives forever.

Free Churches and Society
Author: Lesley Husselbee
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1441136010
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Many of the key improvements to social conditions in the United Kingdom have been made by Christians. Most of us would be able to think of such key Anglican figures as William Wilberforce, Anthony Ashley Cooper, Earl of Shaftesbury or Dr Thomas Barnardo, but lesser known contributions were made behind the scenes by significant members of the Non-Conformist Churches. This book traces the Free Church contribution to society from 1800 to the present day. It looks at the work of campaigners, co-operative societies, philanthropists and politicians, and traces the ways in which conditions in slums, education, and industry were improved, including work with women and with black and ethnic minorities. There is a growing interest in the part the churches can play today in community development and in the building of social capital. This book will show that some of the things now seen as government initiatives had their origins in the work of Free Church pioneers.

Researching Northern English
Author: Raymond Hickey
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027267677
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 495
Book Description
Northern English has become the focus of intensive research in the past decade or so, following on a series of dedicated conferences. The present book brings together leading-edge contributions on various aspects of language use, variation and change in the North of England. The volume covers the history of English in this area as well as providing incisive studies of both the varieties of English spoken in cities and in larger parts of the area. In addition, the collection contains a number of interface studies, e.g. concerned with the borders of the North of England, both to Scotland and the South of England or dealing with second-language varieties of Northern English or with additional issues, such as enregisterment. All these contributions help to draw a comprehensive picture of this key area of the English-speaking world and point the way forward for future research.
