Manuscript title-page of an incomplete short story, penned & signed by the famous prospector and author, who wrote the ever-popular \'Glamour of Prospecting\' and \'Rip van Winkle of the Kalahari\'. Cornell was well-known among his family and friends for writing short fiction as well as factual contributions, on any spare scraps of paper he had to hand, for a host of periodicals - the rewards of which labours were often the only income that kept the wolf from the door.
