Vizier of the Two-Horned Alexander

NOTE: THIS IS A DOWNLOADABLE E-BOOK. "A horrible suspicion now seized upon me. Could I have drained the contents of the spring of inestimable value? Could I, without knowing it, have deprived my king of the great prize for which he had searched so long, with such labor and pains? Of course I was certain of nothing, but I bowed before Alexander, and told him that I had found an insignificant little puddle at the place, that I had tasted it and found it was nothing but common water, and in quantity so small that it scarcely sufficed to quench my thirst. If he would consent to camp in the shade, and wait a few hours, water would trickle again into the little basin, and fill it, and he could see for himself that this could not be the spring of which he was in search.Stockton, Frank Richard is the author of 'Vizier of the Two-Horned Alexander', published 2004 under ISBN 9781419286919 and ISBN 1419286919.
