Description

The story moves animatedly through an atmosphere of patches and perukes, lace and ruffles, with moments that call for the ready rapier and pistol, the "admirable Betty" being, of course, the cause and centre of both comedy and adventure. The story has a lot of scenes that are unconnected with the central theme, the lady of the story unnecessarily hides her scheme to the point of being cruel and life threatening, and the scheme seems unlikely it could have been pulled off.
