Excerpt from The Mysterious Abduction The events that I am about to describe are so fraught with mystery and horror, that they will probably appear to those who peruse their narration, as incredible, until the explanation is supplied. Although full of life and energy, loving adventure and excitement, the awful anxiety to which I was subjected, during the period over which these events extended, together with the unlooked for and hideously dramatic sequel, prostrated me for months and has left its mark upon me for ever. I am Court Arndt of the Archdukedom of Bremlauz, a domain situated within the Austrian Empire, my ancestors having held their titles since the days of the Third Crusade. At the time these adventures befell me, I was twenty-seven years of age, and had succeeded to my inheritance three years previously upon the death of my beloved father, whose demise was the last of a series of misfortunes which had occurred to our family since the period of my birth.
