Summary: "Motor Matt's Mariner; or, Filling the Bill for Bunce" by Stanley R. Matthews is a thrilling adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the main character, Motor Matt, and his cowboy friend, Joe McGlory, as they navigate a series of exciting escapades involving a valuable ruby known as the Eye of Buddha, stolen by the cunning thief Philo Grattan and his partner Bunce. Their journey unfolds in a world of motor vehicles, crime, and unexpected twists, appealing to readers who enjoy action-packed stories of crime and adventure. At the start of the story, Motor Matt and Joe McGlory find themselves waiting for a boat in Catskill-on-the-Hudson and decide to visit a nickelodeon. There, they are shocked to see a moving picture reenacting the details of the jewel theft they had previously encountered, which featured Grattan and Bunce. As the boys grapple with the uncanny similarities between the film and their real-life experiences, they ponder the fate of Tsan Ti, a mandarin who had entrusted the ruby to them for safekeeping. Their curiosity leads them to a series of revelations about Bunce and Grattan, culminating in the discovery of the mariner's hidden intentions and the threat of further danger surrounding them and the precious ruby. This engaging opener sets the stage for a suspenseful tale full of intrigue and excitement. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
