Ferrier, Susan Edmonstone (1782–1854), a friend of Sir W.
Scott, was the successful authoress of three good novels of Scottish life:
Marriage (1818),
The Inheritance (1824), and
Destiny (1831). Her object was avowedly to instruct, particularly on the subject of marriage, but her method lies in shrewd observation and comedy.
