Jones, in the Clerk's Office of the District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Stereotyped By L. Johnson & Co., Philadelphia. PREFACE. When a work of fiction has reached its fortieth edition, one would suppose the author might congratulate himself upon having contributed something of an imperishable character to the literature of the country. But no such pretensions are asserted for this production, now in its fortieth thousand. Being the first essay of an impetuous youth in a field where giants even have not always successfully contended, it would be a rash assumption to suppose it could receive from those who confer such honors any high award of merit. It has been before the public some fifteen years, and has never been reviewed. Perhaps the forbearance of those who wield the cerebral scalpels may not be further prolonged, and the book remains amenable to the judgment they may be pleased to pronounce. To that portion of the public who have read with approbation so many thousands of his book, the author may speak with greater confidence. To this class of his friends he may make disclosures and confessions pertaining to the secret history of the "Wild Western Scenes," without the hazard of incurring their displeasure. Like the hero of his book, the author had his vicissitudes in boyhood, and committed such indiscretions as were incident to one of his years and circumstances, but nevertheless only such as might be readily pardoned by the charitable. Like Glenn, he submitted to a voluntary exile in the wilds of Missouri. Hence the description of scenery is a true picture, and several characters in the scenes were real persons. Many of the occurrences actually transpired in his presence, or had been enacted in the vicinity at no remote period; and the dream of the hero--his visit to the haunted island--was truly a dream of the author's. But the worst miseries of the author were felt when his work was completed; he could get no publisher to examine it. He then purchased an interest in a weekly newspaper, in the columns of which it appeared in consecutive chapters. The subscribers were pleased with it, and desired to possess it in a volume; but still no publisher would undertake it,--the author had no reputation in the literary world. He offered it for fifty dollars, but could find no purchaser at any price. Believing the British booksellers more accommodating, a friend was employed to make a fair copy in manuscript, at a certain number of cents per hundred words. The work was sent to a British publisher, with whom it remained many months, but was returned, accompanied by a note declining to treat for it. Undeterred by the rebuffs of two worlds, the author had his cherished production published on his own account, and was remunerated by the sale of the whole edition. After the tardy sale of several subsequent editions by houses of limited influence, the book had the good fortune, finally, to fall into the hands of the gigantic establishment whose imprint is now upon its title-page. And now, the author is informed, it is regularly and liberally ordered by the London booksellers, and is sold with an increasing rapidity in almost every section of the Union. Such are the hazards, the miseries, and sometimes the rewards, of authorship. J.B.J. Burlington, N.J., _March_, 1856. CONTENTS. CHAPTER I.

"Do you see any light yet, Joe?" "Not the least speck that ever was created, except the lightning, and it's gone before I can turn my head to look at it." The interrogator, Charles Glenn, reclined musingly in a two-horse wagon, the canvas covering of which served in some measure to protect him from the wind and rain.

  • For Latest Results, Updates and Footage About Horse Races
    Annual Report 2012 Another successful season for all horse racing enthusiasts Another year has passed and the 2012 horse racing season was another one full of exciting competitions and championships. During this year, and thanks to the financial support of a number of entities, the Malta Racing Club managed to organize a number of competitions. The club also continued to upgrade the Marsa Racetrack Complex with major works on the main stand and the importation of new sand which was placed in the main track. These works were only possible thanks to the financial support of the Kunsill Malti ghall-Isport which is Malta’s Sport Authority and the Parliamentary Secretariat for Youth and Sport led by the Hon Clyde Puli. As in the past years, in 2012, Malta once again hosted one of the stages of the Mediterranean Championship for Drivers. This heat, held on the 31st March, was won by Maltese veteran driver Raymond Clifton with French trotter Polytain. Champion driver Noel Baldacchino also won another heat of this Championship which was organized at the UFA Racetrack in Russia. As in the previous editions, in this publication, our readers can find information about the major races not only held locally but also in the international scene. Official statistics issued by the Malta Racing Club are also being published in this annual. Finally I would like to thank those companies that once again are helping me financially to publish this annual. Special thanks goes also to the racetrack photographer Alex Azzopardi and to the MRC officials for their constant support.

    WHERE THE BLUE BEGINS WHERE THE BLUE BEGINS Christopher Morley 1 WHERE THE BLUE BEGINS TO FELIX and TOTO "I am not free-- And it may be Life is too tight around my shins; For, unlike you, I can't break through A truant where the blue begins. "Out of the very element Of bondage, that here holds me pent, I'll make my furious sonnet: I'll turn my noose To tightrope use And madly dance upon it. "So I will take My leash, and make A wilder and more subtle fleeing* And I shall be More escapading and more free Than you have ever dreamed of being!" 2 WHERE THE BLUE BEGINS CHAPTER ONE Gissing lived alone (except for his Japanese butler) in a little house in the country, in that woodland suburb region called the Canine Estates. He lived comfortably and thoughtfully, as bachelors often do. He came of a respectable family, who had always conducted themselves calmly and without too much argument. They had bequeathed him just enough income to live on cheerfully, without display but without having to do addition and subtraction at the end of the month and then tear up the paper lest Fuji (the butler) should see it. It was strange, since Gissing was so pleasantly situated in life, that he got into these curious adventures that I have to relate. I do not attempt to explain it. He had no responsibilities, not even a motor car, for his tastes were surprisingly simple. If he happened to be spending an evening at the country club, and a rainstorm came down, he did not worry about getting home.
