Not illustrated. 1913 Excerpt: ...we might ask him to stay a day or two longer. You know he's the only success out of the lot, and I suggested asking him. Rose. You didn't, Violet. He came as Archie's friend. Archie. Well, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Let him go. Let's end this nightmare. Let's get thoroughly awake. And I've done with your Bohemian circles and your artists. I've had enough of them. Rose. I haven't. You've no thoroughness, Archie. You never cared sincerely for art--or life either. Violet. Don't talk stuff, Rose. Where are those men? Archie. Packing their bags, I hope. Who's this? Suckling enters. Suckling. I say--this is a bit thick, isn't it? Rose. What is thick, Mr. Suckling? Suckling. I knew something was up, but that fellow of yours--Bindloss--he's been pitching me a rare tale. Archie. You've been talking to him. Suckling. Well, he's been talking to me. Archie. Why the devil should he talk to you? Rose. Archie, remember that Mr. Suckling is still our guest. Violet. We were hoping that you'd stay a few days, Mr. Suckling. Archie. Mr. Suckling is a busy man, Violet. We mustn't take up too much of his time. Suckling. Oh! As to that--I must say I'd just as soon not take the same train as that chap. People might think we'd all been hoofed out together. But as I was saying--this fellow Bindloss Archie. But why do you go to Bindloss? Suckling. Well, now, Surrage, you're not reasonable. Why do I go to Bindloss? Is he your man, or is he not? If you must know, I was offering him five bob, and he nearly chucked it at my head. I said " What do you expect? Do American millionaires put up here?" And, mind you, I thought if I gave more it wouldn't be fair on Vallance--I doubt if he could raise half a crown.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

He was born in Barnard Castle, County Durham.
He worked in the cotton trade, in Manchester, and settled in Disley, Cheshire. From 1902 to 1932 he worked on the The Manchester Guardian, writing also for the New Statesman. As second in command at the Guardian, Monkhouse helped to launch the career of James Agate by publishing his open letters from France during the First World War.
Agate appears in Monkhouse"s play Nothing Like Leather barely disguised as the theatre critic "Topaz".
He began to write drama for the Gaiety Theatre, Manchester, shortly after it was opened by Annie Horniman, along with Stanley Houghton and Harold Brighouse, forming a school of realist dramatists independent of the London stage, who were known as the Manchester School.
