Excerpt from In the Foreign Legion Schnelldampfer had amongst its passengers a boy in disgrace, bound for the country of unlimited possibilities m search of a fortune. The boy did not see very much of fortune, but met with a great deal of hard work. His father did not consider New York a suitable place for bad boys, and booked him a through passage to Galveston.
