11-The Motor Boys Over The Ocean

FROM THE AUTHOR: It hardly seems possible that I have written as many as eleven volumes of this series, yet such is the case. The present book is just one short of a dozen, and if you are pleased with this, perhaps I shall be encouraged to write the twelfth book. As for the present volume, I have endeavored to give a stirring account of what happened to Jerry, Ned and Bob after they had started out on an apparently simple errand to see a certain man. Ned Slade’s father was in business trouble, and the lad and his friends volunteered to ask aid from a Mr. Jackson. They started out to find him, only to learn that he had gone to a balloon carnival, as he was interested in air craft. The boys went to the aviation meet, and arrived just as Mr. Jackson went up in his big dirigible balloon. Instead of coming back, as he was expected to do, the millionaire sent a wireless message stating that he and his friends were being blown out to sea in a hurricane. Find out how it ends!
