Excerpt from The Boy Scouts on Sturgeon Island, or Marooned Among the Game-Fish Poachers Then tell me who that is talking to our scout master, Dr. Philander Hobbs; because, you know, I've just come in after a scout ahead, and first thing I saw was a stranger among the patrol boys. Oh! You mean that thin chap who came along in his buggy a bit ago, chasing after us all the way from that town where we had a bite of lunch? Why, I understand he's the son of the telegraph op crator there. You know we made arrangements with him to try and get a message to us, if one came along.

I read this a camp. The days were long and the nights short, but I had trouble sleeping in that cot, so I read 3 of these Boy Scout adventure novels. Very good stories about the "old days" in Scouting.
