Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Below the Dead-Line
There ore, any very comprehensive disclosures, if made by one now confidentially received in intimate relations by Boyd himself, in order that some accounts of his re markable work may for the first time be published, could be regarded only as a dishonorable betrayal of really portentous secrets.
Mr. Felix Boyd, however, while the subject of much curious speculation, is not quite the man of mystery sug gested by the above. He is not entirely a stranger to frequenters of that strenuous section of New York which lies south of Fulton Street, the home of the Stock Ex change, the sub-treasury, the greatest banks and bank ing - houses of the country, and the wealthy diamond dealers of Maiden Lane. Below this Fulton Street. (lai line Mr. Felix Boyd is not who? Unknown.
Frequenters of Wall and Broad Streets occasionally see him walking aimlessly about - a reserved, well-dressed man close upon forty, of erect and athletic build, with a smoothly shaven, clean-cut face, lighted by a pair of seemingly indifferent yet keenly observant gray eyes.
