📚 When a man who is wealthy beyond measure, reaches out to a another, a child in comparison in age, to swear to him all his goods and assets, there in lies an obvious level of skepticism.
Edward George Eden, a man who has lost much in life, appears to be given another opportunity for success…but is it too good to be true?
Listeners today I bring you a tale from 1898, The Story of the Late Mr Elvesham, a tale of deceit, woe, and someone whose shit out of luck in all aspects of life. Mates, turn off the lights, turn up the sound, and join me for a tale of old.
