| Summary | "The Argosy, Vol. 51, No. 4, April, 1891" by Various is a periodical publication containing a collection of short stories and articles, produced in the late 19th century. The featured work within this volume, "The Fate of the Hara Diamond," follows Captain Ducie as he attempts to unravel the mystery surrounding a priceless diamond while navigating the complexities of his interactions with M. Platzoff, the diamond's enigmatic and secretive owner. The opening of "The Fate of the Hara Diamond" introduces Captain Ducie's frustration and determination after he partially deciphers a cryptogram related to the diamond, only to find himself at a standstill without a clue to its location. A clear sense of disappointment is established as he conducts observations at Platzoff's residence, Bon Repos, while grappling with his growing obsession with the diamond. The narrative creates an atmosphere of tension and intrigue as Ducie reflects on the moral implications of theft while he develops an unspoken rivalry with Cleon, a servant of Platzoff, hinting at deeper conflicts that may unfold as the story progresses.
