Not illustrated. 1888 edition. Excerpt: ...to show, a sudden throb of his heart made him brush something from his eyes, as he realized the great burden that would be lifted from him if he found, as he now believed he should, that though he might have folly, imprudence, thoughtlessness to condemn, there was no worse evil to censure. Folly he could forgive, folly he could forget, and a click in his throat which caught his breath betrayed the tenderness he was ready to lavish on the transgressor. Rapidly as he walked, by the time Roger reached that point of the Cliff from where Ferrers can be seen nestling below, the short winter afternoon was almost at an end. The light, grown dim, was fading away. Far out 0'er the sea there stretched a short broken line of orange red, already being swallowed up in a sky inky and black. Roger paused; he was looking at, without seeing, that which lay before him--trying to decide how he could best insure an interview with Loyalty. He did not wish to go to the Cot, neither, in his present frame of mind, had he any wish to encounter Dunchy, who, he wished to recollect, was an old man. His mother, too, he particularly wanted to avoid. What was to be done? Roger's eyes roamed round in search of one of those boys, usually swarming everywhere, whom he could send with a message, asking Loyalty to come to the Shag Cliff, where he was waiting for her. The Cliff was close by; involuntarily he turned himself in its direction, and, caught by one of those phantasms which the great _magician of our fancy creates for us, as he unconsciously moved along he saw himself and Loyalty already standing there together, his arms had enfolded her, his eyes were gazing into eyes that looked at him again, on his breast her head was leaned, and into his ears with...

Louisa Sarah Ann Taylor was born in London in about 1848. She was brought up in Plymouth as her father was a Naval officer
Her first published writing was a success. lieutenant was published in English in 1868 in the evangelical magazine Good Words as "How it all happened" and the story was soon reprinted in French and later in German. The English version was also printed as an American pamphlet.
The story was issued under the pen name of Mrs Olinthus Lobb but for most of her work she used her own name.
The following year Dorothy Fox, her first novel, was published. The story of Quaker life was another success and an American publisher paid her an advance of £300 against her next novel.
Her next two novels were published in 1874 and 1875 but neither of them were very successful. Her next novel was titled Adam and Eve and this was another success in 1880.
This novel recalled her nautical childhood.
lieutenant was set in Cornwall where the protagonist "Adam" lives and smuggles. The "Eve" in the book"s title is the name of Adam"s cousin who lives in London. The stories in this novel were based on fact as she re-used situations recorded in the History of Polperro which was written by Jonathan Couch in 1871.
The dialect used in the novel was used as a source for Cornish English by Joseph Wright in his English Dialect Dictionary.
Parr published several other books, but none was as successful as her "tour de force", Adam and Eve. Her books were written with style and humour that dealt pointedly with the oppression of women.
Her last novel,, told the story of a woman looked down on by her lover and his ill-mannered family. lieutenant was published in 1893.
In 1897, Women Novelists of Queen Victoria"s Reign was published and this included a short biography written by Parr about her fellow writer Dinah Mulock Craik.
Parr died at her home in London in 1903 leaving £6,400.
