About This Book

A runaway named Glen Mason leaves a reform school, is taken in by Jolly Bill and Mrs. Spencer, and becomes involved with local boys and the Boy Scouts in a quest for a hidden treasure. After initiation and enlistment he helps execute a long-planned search, confronts the J. Jervice gang, follows false trails, and endures a motor-bike chase and cave exploration before uncovering buried valuables at Buffalo Lake. A detective's aid and the scouts' resourcefulness lead to the gang's defeat and a settled outcome for the boys' fortunes and friendships.
