A very good copy in original publisher's tooled blue cloth covers, rather worn at the edges.  This collection of thirteen stories from an anonymous author combines romance and adventure with uplifting Victorian sentiment. 

Inscribed in pencil on the front fep "Mrs. Ann Eliza Combs, Mendham NJ," and also "Effie D. Combs, Morristown NJ, daughter of C.B. Combs." 

Please see photos. More photos available upon request.
