Monte Carlo and sea voyages frame a compact thriller featuring Col Terence O Rourke an Irish soldier of fortune. He meets Viscount Des Trebes and Bertie Glynn while drawn into a secret mission for the French government and a quest for the jewel known as the Pool of Flame.
In Rangoon a raid targets a jewel beside a Chinese merchant and a killer in disguise. Sypher dies during a tilt at a safe, Des Trebes lurks, and a perilous boat chase ends as O'Rourke battles aboard the junk. The second launch arrives as rescuers seize the abductor and reunite him with his wife amid a brutal showdown.
After days of travel from Rangoon the couple O Rourke and his bride trek north into the Chindwin basin near the Irrawaddy. They climb a pagoda hill and enter a temple where a gold adorned Buddha glows with a ruby inlay as evening fades. The wife fears the country and asks to go home. Terence reassures her that their adventure is finished.
The note recalls twenty eight years in Nebraska with the belief winter snows foretell a later short crop. It imagines farmers renting extra ground to stack harvested wheat and mentions widespread shucked corn, reflecting a cautious outlook for the state. Augusta E. Frazey visited her brother Dr. B W Frazey and wife before heading to a claim near Hillsdale Wyoming. Class D Domestic Science members met Mrs J L McIntosh for cake baking initiation.
