Product Description

The Adventure Club had its inception, one evening toward the last of June, in Number 17 Sumner Hall, which is the oldest, most vine-hidden and most hallowed of the seven dormitories of Dexter Academy.

I found that it lessoned the value of the man's purple heart by giving it to a dog. It would have been better if it went to a hurt child. ... Read more
