520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "Fighting for Fortune; or, Making a Place for Himself" by Roy Franklin is a juvenile adventure novel written in the early 20th century. Set around Lake Seneca, it follows determined youth Dean Mercer as he breaks from a law apprenticeship to launch a rival steamboat line with the backing of Judge Oglesby, while facing sabotage and scheming from entrenched interests. Allies like the salty Jack Carboy aid him, as bullies Tim Downey and Rodney Darringford plot theft, fraud, and arson; a parallel thread involves Dean helping Marcus Ellison in the fight to clear Marcus’s father of a wrongful charge. The opening of the story shows Dean quitting the musty law office, rescuing newcomer Marcus from a beating, and accepting two critical errands: safeguarding papers and money to aid Marcus’s father, and carrying an $8,000 check to pay for the new steamer, the Spray. After Tim Downey overhears these plans, he alerts Rodney and Colonel Darringford, the Warrior sails early, and Dean and Jack chase it by stage—surviving a crash—then reboard at Landlock. In Springfield, a con man posing as the builder tricks Dean out of the check, which Rodney later cashes by impersonating him; meanwhile Tim spies through a secret stateroom panel, intercepts Marcus and his wallet, and sets an arson scheme in motion. By morning, the Spray still stands but the money is gone, and Dean, visiting Marcus’s home, learns the boy never returned—leaving the new venture and Marcus’s family in sudden peril.
