Argosy All-Story Weekly

About this issue

This issue contains five serialized stories. "The Rider O' Spook Hollow" by Charles Francis Coe, a four-part story in its first installment, concerns Tod Jennings, a ranch hand at the Loop K, whose engagement to Nan Rogers, the owner's daughter, becomes threatened when John Rogers grows cold toward him—apparently influenced by Bram Goud, a mysterious foreman recently salvaged from Spook Hollow. Fellow ranch hand Slim Willett suspects Goud holds some leverage over Rogers, accounting for strange business decisions and the rancher's altered behavior. Additionally, the issue features novelettes and short stories by established authors including Ralph Milne Farley (concluding "The Radio Planet"), Fred MacIsaac, William Slavens McNutt, Erle Stanley Gardner, and Frank Richardson Pierce, alongside poetry and extensive classified advertising for patent services, government jobs, and mail-order businesses.
