The Argosy, Volume 60 (1895): Table of Contents
This 1930 periodical contains a mix of serialized novels, short stories, and poetry. The featured serial *When Leaves Were Green* by Sydney Hodges runs throughout, illustrated by Frank Dadd. *A Cruel Doubt* by Lady Margaret Majendie and *The Romance of Spain* by Charles W. Wood (a geographical/historical work) also serialize across multiple issues. The short fiction spans domestic and mystery genres: "Lady Cecilia's Emeralds" by Jessie Leete concerns jewelry, "The Mystery of Miss Carew" by M. E. Stanley-Penn involves intrigue, and "The Thirteenth Guest" by Anna H. Drury suggests supernatural elements. E. Nesbit contributes both a story ("The White Redoubte") and poetry ("A Song in June"). Additional stories explore romance, inheritance disputes, and historical subjects. A substantial poetry section features work by Christian Burke, William Cowan, and others, touching themes of love, nature, and classical motifs. Frank Dadd's illustrations depict dramatic moments from the serials.
