MOTOR MATT'S PROMISE;
OR,
THE WRECK OF THE HAWK .
By the author of MOTOR MATT.
Motor Matt , a lad who is at home with every variety of motor, and whose never-failing nerve serves to carry him through difficulties that would daunt any ordinary young fellow. Because of his daring as a racer with bicycle, motor-cycle and automobile he is known as Mile-a-minute Matt. Motor-boats, air ships and submarines come naturally in his line, and consequently he lives in an atmosphere of adventure in following up his hobby. Carl Pretzel , a cheerful and rollicking German boy, stout of frame as well as of heart, who is led by a fortunate accident to link his fortunes with those of Motor Matt. Dick Ferral , a young sea dog from Canada, with all a sailor's superstitions, but in spite of all that a royal chum, ready to stand by the friend of his choice through thick and thin. Archibald Townsend , a wealthy though eccentric gentleman, who owns a remarkable submarine boat on which our friends have seen various adventures in the past. Cassidy , mate of the submarine Grampus . Whistler , Jurgens , Bangs , } a trio of rogues bent upon gaining possession of a prize. Joe Dashington , Motor Matt's double, who proves how small a matter will sometimes turn a fellow from the wrong road into the right one. Shirley, of Scotland Yard , who springs a surprise at the end of the story. Fetterman, assistant chief of police , who helps the Scotland Yard man.
