Unfortunately, however, in approaching the house after leaving the aeroplane, Ned and Tom had not thought to exercise caution, and, not suspecting anything wrong, they had stepped on a number of footprints left by the kidnappers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
