In over their heads?
THE YEAR IS 1899, and the Travelin' Nine are barnstorming their
way across the good ol' U.S. of A., trying to raise money to pay
off the Payne family's big-league debt.
Griffith has a run-in with the Chancellor and learns that the
baseball isn't the only item the infamous industrialist is after.
Even more mysteriously, the Chancellor claims to have something
that the Paynes want.
And Ruby. Where in the world has she vanished to? Does her
disappearance have anything to do with the Chancellor's threats? Or
is there some other plan in play?
And finally, Graham makes a heartfelt birthday wish and somehow
gets exactly what he asks for. But questions still remain: Was it
real? Can it possibly be true? Or is it all just a dream?
If they don't watch out, Griffith, Ruby, Graham, and the
Travelin' Nine may find themselves in deep water in the Land of
10,000 Lakes!
