Summary

Description
English: Illustration for Chapter 33 of "Evan Harrington" (Once a Week magazine, volume 3, page 169). The Countess has been exposed as the daughter of a tailor and (worse) as having lied about it. She intends, nonetheless, to stay at Beckley and battle public opinion; partly because she doesn't like to retreat and partly because she's trying to wheedle an inheritance out of an old woman who's currently dying in the house. Evan has told her he intends to leave Beckley and she is holding him back from going out the door. Behind them, a lady's maid expresses contempt for the pretender-countess.
