Excerpt from The Double-Runner Club: Or the Lively Boys of Rivertown Tee names of those who appear in the story are. For the most part, those of early friends, still held in affectionate regard by the author, although no effort has been made to invest them with early characteristics, beyond those general attributes which distinguish the universal human boy. The scenes in which they are called to move have also, as far as practicable, been made to conform to those of early association; but the necessities of the story have, in many cases, destroyed or im paired their identity. Enough is presented, how ever, to show that the heart of the writer still delights in that past wherein, with his young friends, - whose friendship in later times has never deserted him, he enjoyed a boyhood of rare happiness. The aim of the story is to show that boys, governed by rules of their own imposing.
