The Rover Boys on a Hunt

INTRODUCTION

My Dear Boys: This book is a complete story in itself, but forms thefourth volume in a line issued under the general title, "The SecondRover Boys Series for Young Americans."

As mentioned in some volumes of the first series, this line was startedyears ago with the publication of "The Rover Boys at School," "On theOcean," and "In the Jungle," in which I introduced my readers to Dick,Tom and Sam Rover. The twenty volumes of the first series related thedoings of these three youths while attending Putnam Hall MilitaryAcademy, Brill College, and while on numerous outings.

Having acquired a thorough education, the three young men establishedthemselves in business and were married. Presently Dick Rover became thefather of a son and a daughter, and so did his brother Sam, while TomRover became the father of twin boys. The four lads were later on sentto boarding school, as related in the first volume of this secondseries, entitled "The Rover Boys at Colby Hall."

From Colby Hall the scene was shifted to "Snowshoe Island," where thelads went for a winter outing. Then they came back to the militaryacademy, and later on participated in the annual encampment, as relatedin the third volume, entitled "The Rover Boys under Canvas."

In the present volume the scene is shifted from lively times at ColbyHall to still more livelier times in the woods, to which the ladsjourneyed for a season of hunting. They came upon a mysterious house inthe forest, and there uncovered a secret which I will leave the pagesthat follow to relate.

Once more I wish to thank my numerous readers for the many nice thingsthey have said about these "Rover Boys" books. I trust that the readingof the volumes will do them all good.

Affectionately and sincerely yours,

Edward Stratemeyer.
