Good to go, though could be tidied. But he only used the handle, dammit - that's not a proper horsewhipping, as this bounder obviously deserved! And I don't think you can "elope" with a married woman, just run off.

Thanks,
Johnbod. I think that's ALT4, but the rewritten hook is fine by me. The term "eloped" was used in
the referenced court report by The Times. He was quite the archetypal
rake. I had intended to write a stub, but the sources kept on throwing up more frolics. --

They don't make MP's like that any more, quite. Either eloped or ran off then.
