The Rambler Club Afloat BY W. CRISPIN SHEPPARD AUTHOR OF "A KNIGHT OF THE WEST SIDE" THE PENN PUBLISHING COMPANY PHILADELPHIA MCMIX COPYRIGHT 1909 BY THE PENN PUBLISHING COMPANY THE BOYS CROWDED AROUND THE BOAT Introduction The author's purpose is a very unassuming one. He aims simply to present to the host of bright American boys a clean, wholesome story of sport and adventure. The Ramblers are a group of five jolly young fellows, who form a club for the purpose of hunting and fishing, but find their plans changed by circumstances. In the course of their travels, the Nimrod Club, a rival organization, is often encountered. The boys are able to accept the unexpected and often trying situations in which they are placed with a reasonable degree of philosophy. They are disposed to be forbearing, yet are spirited enough to stand up for their rights when patience ceases to be a virtue. This story tells how, in spite of trials and discouragement, they are undaunted, bravely push on, and are finally rewarded by solving the mystery of the many strange happenings that have befallen them. "The Rambler Club's Winter Camp," and "The Rambler Club in the Mountains," show the members of the club in outdoor experiences that any real live boy will envy them. W. Crispin Sheppard. W.
