Excerpt from Linley Rochford: A NovelTo account for Mrs. Rochford's rather Odd name, it should be said that she was baptised Felicia Linley. Linley was the name of her mother, and Of the maiden relatives and out of fondness for the name and them, her mother always called the child Linley, and by degrees the Felicia faded altogether away and was hardly remembered. At Bonn some of the saucy English schoolgirls would sometimes nickname her Linley Murray, which was absurd, because, as more sensible girls pointed out, the name Of the illustrious grammarian was Lindley, and Linley and Lindley are entirely different.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
