by ANTHONY TROLLOPE adapted for radio in thirteen episodes by H. Oldfield Box Episode 3
Frank Gresham , son and heir of the squire of Greshamsbury, has just celebrated his coming of age. But this once prosperous estate is now heavily in debt. Only if Frank marries money can Greshamsbury be restored to its former glories; and this his mother, Lady Arabella, and his aunt, the Countess de Courcy, are determined he shall do.
Frank, however, is in love with Mary Thorne , the doctor's niece, and has asked her to marry him. But Mary, knowing that some unhappyj mystery had attended her birth, has refused to listen to him.
