The story revolves around two men, Lemorne and Huell, who are in love with the same woman, a young and beautiful heiress named Lucy. The book is set in the 19th century and explores themes of love, jealousy, and betrayal.Lemorne is a successful lawyer who has been in love with Lucy since they were children. He is determined to win her heart and marry her, but his plans are complicated by the arrival of Huell. Huell is a charming and handsome artist who quickly becomes a rival for Lucy’s affections.As the story unfolds, Lemorne and Huell engage in a bitter and intense competition for Lucy’s love. They use every means at their disposal to win her over, including lavish gifts, grand gestures, and emotional manipulation. However, their battle takes a dark turn when Huell resorts to violence in an attempt to eliminate Lemorne from the competition.Throughout the book, Stoddard explores the complexities of human relationships and the destructive power of jealousy. She also offers a vivid portrayal of life in the 19th century, with its rigid social hierarchies and strict gender roles.Overall, Lemorne Versus Huell is a gripping and suspenseful novel that delves into the darker aspects of love and desire. It offers a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era and the timeless themes that continue to resonate with readers today.We had been in Newport two weeks when Mr. Van Horn, Aunt Eliza’s lawyer, came. He said that he would see Mr. Edward Uxbridge. Between them they might delay a term, which he thought would be best. ''Would Miss Huell ever be ready for a compromise?'' he jestingly asked.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
