About this book
John Finnemore wrote Jack Haydon's Quest, which the front matter says contains eight full-page illustrations in colour from drawings by J. Jellicoe. The contents list names chapters among others called The Attack on the Heath, A Mysterious Disappearance and The Big Ruby. Jack felt wretchedly uneasy, for he and his father were bound together by no ordinary ties of affection. The elder Haydon had always been a great hero in his son's eyes, and his profession of mining engineer had carried him into many wild corners of the world.
Jack roared at the top of his voice, and his outcries were drowned in the wild trumpeting of the elephants. Jack shouted no more, as he feared lest his cries should disturb the herd so much that the wild creatures should take flight. U Saw had not stirred a limb save to flick the ashes from his cheroot, nor had his gaze wandered aside from the glowing flame.
