The Second String by Nat Gould is about a young hero and rebellious good-for-nothing Jack Redland, a frequent visitor of The Downs and a secret admirer of sweet and beautiful Winifred. Excerpt: "There goes the failure of the family, yet I like him, there's real grit in him if it was brought out." The speaker was Sir Lester Dyke, and the remark was made to his daughter, Winifred. "The failure" did not seem unhappy, he walked across the field with a free and easy stride, whistling softly to himself, enjoying the beauties of nature, taking in everything at a glance, drinking deep of the many good things that mother earth provided for the entertainment of mankind."
