| Summary | "The Border Boys on the Trail" by Fremont B. Deering is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows two boys, Ralph Stetson and Jack Merrill, who venture to the New Mexico border region, where they get caught up in a series of dangerous adventures involving cattle rustlers. As they navigate the unfamiliar landscape and its challenges, they rely on their wits and friendship. The opening of the novel introduces Ralph and Jack as they arrive in the scanty frontier town of Maguez, New Mexico. They are accompanied by their professor, Wintergreen, who is eager to study the local history and culture. The narrative quickly shifts from a mundane arrival to a more thrilling atmosphere as the boys witness a chaotic scene involving a Chinese cook and a threatening Mexican man, Black Ramon De Barrios. In a series of incidents, Ralph's luck and bravery are put to the test, particularly when he finds himself amidst a runaway pony incident, leading to a life-threatening situation with the current of a rushing canal. The stage is set for the boys’ adventures, fraught with excitement and danger while hinting at the presence of more treachery ahead. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
