About this book
The manager of the Western Union telegraph office in Damietta tells how he came to know Ben Mayberry, a ten-year-old newspaper seller found drifting down the river on a log. Ben, only child of a widowed mother, is fast on his feet and a remarkably accurate thrower. Edward S. Ellis's twenty-six chapters go on to a collision, the office boy, a message in the night, a cipher telegram and a conspiracy. The subtitle promises the straight road to success.
