This eBook edition of "Framley Parsonage" has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Mark Robarts is a young vicar settled in the village of Framley in Barsetshire with his wife and children. Mark has ambitions to further his career and begins to seek connections in the county's high society. He is soon preyed upon by local Whig Member of Parliament Mr. Sowerby to guarantee a substantial loan, which Mark in a moment of weakness agrees to do, even though he does not have the means and knows Sowerby to be a notorious debtor.
