About the Book

Chapter I An Appeal For Aid Tom Swift stepped from the door of the machine shop, where he was at work making some adjustments to the motor of his airship, and glanced down the road. He saw a cloud of dust, which effectually concealed whatever was causing it. Some one must be in a hurry this morning, the lad remarked, Looks like a motor speeding along. My! but we certainly do need rain, he added, as he looked up toward the sky. Its very dusty. Well, I may as well get back to work. Ill take the airship out for a flight this afternoon, if the wind dies down a bit. The young inventor, for Tom Swift himself had built the airship, as well as several other crafts for swift locomotion, turned to reenter the shop. Something about the approaching cloud of dust, however, held his attention. He glanced more intently at it. If its an automobile coming along, he murmured, its moving very slowly, to make so much fuss. And I never saw a motor-cycle that would kick up as much sand, and not speed along more. It ought to be here by now. I wonder what it can be? The cloud of highway dirt rolled along, making some progress toward Toms house and the group of shops and other buildings surrounding it. But, as the lad had said, the dust did not move at all quickly in comparison to any of the speedy machines that might be causing it. And the cloud seemed momentarily to grow thicker and thicker. I wonder if it could be a miniature tornado, or a cyclone or whirlwind? and Tom spoke aloud, a habit of his when he was thinking, and had no one to talk to. Yet it can hardly be that. he went on. Guess Ill watch and see what it is. Nearer and nearer came the dust cloud. Tom peered anxiously ahead, a puzzled look on his face. A few seconds later there came from the midst of the obscuring cloud a voice, exclaiming: Glang there now, Boomerang! Keep to feet a-movin an we sho will make a record. Taint laik we was a autermobiler, er a electricity car, but we sho hab been goin sence we started. Yo sho done yosef proud tday, Boomerang, an Ise gwine t keep mah promise an gib yo de bestest oats I kin find. Ah reckon Massa Tom Swift will done say we brought dis yeah message t him as quick as anybody could. Then there followed the sound of hoofbeats on the dusty road, and the rattle of some many-jointed vehicle, with loose springs and looser wheels. Eradicate Sampson! exclaimed Tom. But who would ever think that the colored mans mule could get up such speed as that cloud of dust indicates. His mules feet must be working overtime, but he goes backward about as often as he moves forward. That accounts for it. Theres lots of dust, but not much motion. Once more, from the midst of the ball-like cloud of dirt came the voice of the colored man: Now behave yosef, Boomerang. Wem almost dere an den yo kin sit down an rest if yo laik. Jest keep it up a little longer, an well gib Massa Tom his telephone. Glang now, Boomerang. The tattoo of hoofbeats was slowing up now, and the cloud of dust was not so heavy....
