In quest of gold he visits Mexico and there meets a dreamy-eyed maid who straightway gives him first place in her heart. But an American girl has already won his love. It is a pathetic situation and if one true woman's heart breaks before the man's mission is ended who is to blame? There are many touching incidents in the book, but none more full of pathos than when the woman who loves bares her soul to the woman who is loved.... 12mo., Cloth. Price, $1.00.
