Seek and Find or The Adventures of a Smart Boy [EPUB ebook] 

SEEK AND FIND is the third of the serial stories published in OUR BOYS AND GIRLS, where it appeared as the sequel of BREAKING AWAY. The author had no more reason to complain of its reception than of that accorded to its predecessors; and he returns his sincere thanks to all those young friends who have written hundreds of letters to him, containing the most generous commendation, with an occasional criticism, which was by no means unwelcome.
