Two Wyoming Girls and Their Homestead Claim: A Story for Girls
Marshall, Caroline Louise
Frontier and pioneer life -- West (U.S.) -- Juvenile fiction; Homestead law -- West (U.S.) -- Juvenile fiction
A tale of the Indian war waged by King Philip in 1675. The adventures
of the young hero during that eventful period, his efforts in behalf
of the attacked towns, his capture by the Indians, and his subsequent
release through the efforts of King Philip himself, with a vivid
account of the tragic death of that renowned Indian chieftain, form a
most interesting and instructive story of the early days of the
colonies.
_The Young Gold Seekers_
_By Edward S. Ellis, A. M._ _Illustrated by F. A. Carter_
A thrilling account of the experiences of two boys during a trip to
the gold fields of Alaska. The hardships that they endure, the
disappointments they suffer, the courage and perseverance that they
manifest in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles, and their
eventual success in their undertaking, are all most graphically
portrayed.
_True to His Trust_
_By Edward S. Ellis, A. M._ _Illustrated by J. Steeple Davis_
The hero of this story will win his way at once into the heart of
every one, and his pluck and perseverance will carry the sympathy of
every reader through his many adventures, struggles, and singular
experiences. Like all of the author's works, the incidents teach in
the most convincing manner that true manliness and sturdy integrity
are the only principles through which happiness and success in life
are possible.
_Comrades True_
_By Edward S. Ellis, A. M._ _Illustrated_
In following the career of two friends from youth to manhood, the
author weaves a narrative of intense interest. This story is more
realistic than is usual, as the two heroes pass through the calamitous
forest fires in Northern Minnesota and barely escape with their lives.
They have other thrilling adventures and experiences in which the
characteristics of each are finely portrayed.
"Among juveniles there is not one of greater interest, or more

Wis.
_Among the Esquimaux_
_By Edward S. Ellis, A. M._ _Illustrated_

them into dangerous positions. They visit Greenland; go on a hunting
expedition, have a number of stirring adventures, but ultimately reach
home safe and sound.
"A capital and instructive book for boys."--_Post_, Boston, Mass.
