TALES OF MYSTERY
The House of the Black Ring
By FRED. LEWIS PATTEE. $1.50
A story oddly combining humor and horror. It tells of the squire, a sort of feudal lord, his enemies, his fate and of his daughter and how she would have her way in love. The weird influence of The House of the Black Ring dominates the little “pocket” in the Seven Mountains of Pennsylvania.
The Washington Star: “An unusual combination of the weird and the humorous ... absorbing and often thrilling tale.... A forest fire ... is a dramatic episode which does Mr. Pattee exceptional credit in the restraint of his treatment and the effectiveness of his climaxes.”
N. Y. Evening Sun: “An interesting story ... piques the reader’s curiosity and keeps him reading till the mystery is solved.”
