Jasper County Democrat, Volume 12, Number 15, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 26 May 1909 — “THE MAN FROM HOME.” [ARTICLE]
“THE MAN FROM HOME.”
The Democrat’s Next Serial Story Is From the Pen of Booth Tarkington. The serial story now running in The Democrat will end with a few more issues, and we have secured another to begin on the ending of “The Round-Up.’’ This is by Indiana’s popular author, Booth Tarkington, and Harry Leon Wilson. Mr. Tarkington is the author of several great selling stories, two of which, “The Gentleman From Indiana’’ and “The Conquest of Canaan,” have been published in The Democrat." The scene of “The Man From Home” is also laid in the Hoosier state, and is one of Tarkington’s best. It is a clever satire on fortune hunting nobility and internaUonal marriages. The play has been a success of two seasons, and the story Is better than the play. The opening chapters of “The Man From Home” will appear shortly. Watch for It
