DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Dick Hamilton's Steam Yacht, or a Young Millionaire and the Kidnappers My Dear Boys: Perhaps some of you, at one time or another, have had a desire to be cast away on an island in the middle of the ocean, there to have all sorts of adventures, to build a boat, and sail away, maybe; or, at any rate, to have some experience on the great sea. Something like this fell to the lot of Dick Hamilton, though he was not exactly looking for it, and it is my privilege to give you in this, the third volume of the "Dick Hamilton Series," an account of what happened to the young millionaire when he had purchased a steam yacht, and started out on a cruise with some of his friends. Dick was marooned on a small island, but, far from that proving a delightful experience, he was, very glad to leave, even though it was on a raft, which he and his companions constructed.

"You'll have a nice tumble, if you do." "And I guess you'd like to see me," suggested the aspiring acrobat. "Well, I'm not going to. Tim, you and I will get up a daily paper. We can gather news by wireless. I'll write out the sheets by hand, and you can sell 'em." "Sure," agreed the newsboy. "I'm lost without something like that to do. I'm not used to this sporting life.

Tiring of the exposure to the rough weather, they came below in about half an hour, and put in the rest of the morning at various occupations. Some wrote letters, to be posted when sighting the next inward-bound coast steamer; Dick was going over some details of the mysteries of navigation with Captain Barton, and Beeby was peacefully slumbering, braced up on a divan, with many cushions to soften his descent in case he was pitched to the cabin floor. The striking of eight bells, or the noon call to dinner, saw reassembled in the dining-room Dick and his friends.
