Dick Merriwell's Aëro Dash; Or, Winning Above the Clouds

A bright midsummer road stretches like a ribbon through golden wheat, inviting any driver to test the limits of speed. When the thrill‑seeking Brose Stovebridge careens his new high‑powered roadster, his reckless joy turns to horror as a small girl lies motionless in the lane, the aftermath of his fatal miscalculation. Overcome by panic, he abandons the scene, hoping the dust will hide his guilt.

Enter Dick Merriwell, the celebrated Yale athlete, who brakes just in time to discover the tragedy. With swift compassion he lifts the injured child, carries her toward a nearby farmhouse, and vows to bring the reckless driver to justice. As the dust settles, his friends rally around him, their resolve sharpening into a high‑stakes pursuit that promises to test both courage and conscience. The story races forward, blending danger, loyalty, and the urgent question of whether redemption can ever catch up with a fleeing soul.
