Hi
Some days ago, I was reading a novel called Olive Twist in which I found a strange sentence. Below is the sentence. Please tell me whether the sentence is grammatically correct.
HE WAS A GOOD FRIEND OF THE LADIES.
I think this sentence is wrong and it should be as follows:
He was a good friend of the ladies'.
For example, we say, " it was a good idea of Adam's and not it was a good idea of Adam.
What is your idea?
Thank you
