El Ombú 

The two short stories included in this volume are reprints:—the "Story of a Piebald Horse" from a book of travel and adventure in South America, long out of print; the other, "Niño Diablo, " is taken, by permission, from Macmillan's Magazine. The two long stories now appear for the first time, excepting only the incidents of the English invasion told in "El Ombú, " and the Appendix to the same story, which formed part of an article describing the game of El Pato in the Badminton Magazine.
