Prologue

Richard Harding Davis based many of his works on his own experiences as a journalist. This engaging collection of short stories, the title story of which was made into a movie in 1915, also includes such stories as "My Buried Treasure," "The Nature Faker," and "The Lost House."Excerpt:So, Carter ran to find Cuthbert, and told him The Scout had gone lame. When, on their return, Miss Ingram refused to loosen her hold on The Scout's nose, Cuthbert apologetically mumbled Carter's name, and in some awe Miss Ingram's name, and then, to his surprise, both young people lost interest in The Scout, and wandered away together into the rain.After an hour, when they parted at the club stand, for which Carter could not afford a ticket, he asked wistfully: Do you often come racing? And Miss Ingram said: Do you mean, am I coming to-morrow?
