Amazed at what one can learn here. I thought that SWMBO was from Rumpole of the Bailey. After you said it was from a novel by H. Rider Haggard I looked it up and found that Rumpoles wife SWMBO was copied from the Haggard novel.
Thanks for the lesson.


Isn't it fun to learn strange things from other people.? If you have not read a Haggard novel, try one, or one of the movies bases on one of his books. Google H. Rider Haggard, your library might have them, or go to ABE books for used copies, not expensive ones.

Thank you for the information. I checked our library on my computer and there a a lot of H. Rider Haggard books on electronic resources and five in regular book form. I don't know how to use electronic resources but I will check with my branch and they are so good about helping me. Our Library system is county wide and if a book is at another branch one can order it on the computer and within a day or two the book will be at my branch. Love our library mostly except for returning books. Have to be sure they get them checked in. The synopsis for the Haggard books in the library look very interesting.
