"Frank Merriwell's Triumph; Or, The Disappearance of Felicia" by Burt L. Standish is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Frank Merriwell, a resourceful and intrepid young man who faces threats against his claim to a rich mine, the Queen Mystery, in Arizona. As he deals with unscrupulous characters and dangerous ruffians, the book sets the stage for an adventure filled with mystery, suspense, and a quest for fortune. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to a tense scene where Merriwell is dismissing his guards, a group of tough men he previously relied on for protection. The atmosphere is charged with apprehension, as some of the guards are disappointed to leave their employment. Two characters, Kip Henry and Hull Shawmut, engage in a conversation that reveals their jealousy and desire for Merriwell's fortune, setting up future conflicts. Merriwell's loyalty to his friends and his commitment to justice become apparent as he prepares for a journey to discover Benson Clark's elusive mine.
