CAPT’N DAVY’S HONEYMOON. A Manx Yarn. By Hall Caine, author of “The Deemster,” “The Scape-Goat,” etc. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00.
“A new departure by this author. Unlike his previous works, this little tale is almost wholly humorous, with, however, a current of pathos underneath.

“Constructed with great ingenuity. The story is full of delight.”—Boston Advertiser.
“A rollicking story of Manx life, well told.... Mr. Caine has really written no book superior in character-drawing and dramatic force to this little comedy.”—Boston Beacon.
