Excerpt from Pure Gold, Vol. 1 of 3
Michael Gale was a bachelor he would not marry for fear he might stumble upon a wife who might squander a few hundreds of his wealth upon her dresses or her carriages. It was safer to avoid women, he told himself; a man never knows how they will turn out after marriage. In time he came to have a rooted horror of the other sex, and so he remained single.
