1904. From the Boys of Liberty Library. The titles in this series have been selected with care. They are bright and sparkling; not overburdened with lengthy descriptions, but brimful of adventure from the first page to the last-in fact they are just the kind of yarns that appeal strongly to the healthy boy who is fond of thrilling exploits and deeds of heroism. The King's Messenger begins: Listen, Eben! What did ye think ye heard, Robert? It sounded like some one shouting for help. Out on the water? Nay, Nay, rather over yonder down the wind, and along the shore. There it is, once again. Surely it is true. Let us look to our guns and make haste in that direction. These be troublous times, and it may pay us to be cautious, Robert.
