JO DAVIESS’ CLIENT; OR, ‘COURTING’ IN KENTUCKY.

BY MRS. M. V. VICTOR.

Author of “=GOLD HUNTERS=,” “=MAUM GUINEA=,” etc.

In this fine story we have reproduced, to the life, the Kentucky of the year 1800. It is one of the most exciting and absorbing of stories, embracing such characters and incidents as only Kentucky can produce. Jo Daviess was one of the most remarkable men of that remarkable period. He plays in the novel such a part as only Jo Daviess could play in and out of court. The great charm of Mrs. Victor’s works is heightened by the fact that her characters are historically true. In reading her novels we have, besides the story, real expositions of men and veritable events. This her last, is, also, one of her best. It will not fail to command a wide sale.
