The story runs along moel conven tional lines and at the end gives lindo stinction to the reader who has under through its pages. It is the old story of the once-wealthy country squire falling on evil daya,, of the mortgaging of the estate, of the scheming old solicitor endeavouring got hold of the property, and of the whole thing coming right in the end by the i discovery of a secret treasure in a far-off land.
