_This story is told by Will Gordon, a young fellow about sixteen yearsold, who saw for himself everything worth seeing in the course of theevents he relates, and so knows much more about them than any one whowould have to depend upon hearsay. Will is a good-looking boy, withbrown hair and gray eyes, rather large for his age, and very fond ofbeing a leader among his young companions. Whether or not he is good atthat sort of thing, you can judge from the story he tells._
