Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"In the Dead of Night: A Novel, Volume 3" by T. W. Speight is a fiction novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Squire Culpepper, who is facing financial difficulties and the humiliation of borrowing money for the first time in his life. The novel explores themes of friendship, betrayal, and the complex dynamics of social status and personal relationships. At the start of the novel, Squire Culpepper is on his way to Sugden’s bank to request a loan from his friend, Mr. Cope, as he struggles to secure funds due to failed investments. His confidence is shattered when Cope coldly refuses to lend him the money, despite their long-standing friendship. This financial crisis leads to a series of introspective thoughts and interactions with other characters, including his daughter Jane, as well as insights into his relationship with Tom Bristow, a young man who perhaps has ideas of his own regarding Jane's affection.
