By John William Draper, M. D. , LL. D. PROFESSOR IN THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK,

IS MAINLY MYSTERIOUS. A woman – perhaps? Who knows! Poor Dick Harborne was certainly a man of secrets, and of many adventures. Well, it certainly is a most mysterious affair. You, my dear Barclay, appear to be the last person to have spoken to him. Apparently I was, replied Lieutenant Noel Barclay,...

I remember one morning in a certain college village going over from the hotel to take breakfast with some of the boys, and coming back with one of the fellows whom I had just met.
