This issue of *Beadle and Adams'* weekly features "The Maze of the Silver Dagger; or, the Silver Dagger," by Captain Howard Holmes. The serial opens in New York with money-lender Noah Moneybox meeting Dan Nicobar, a dark-faced schemer who demands a loan while threatening Moneybox with references to a mysterious criminal organization called "the Silver Dagger." Frightened by the threat, Moneybox receives a warning note. He then visits Medusa, a fortune-teller and woman of mysterious background, only to discover her murdered—a silver dagger embedded in her chest. Moneybox decides to contact Jason Clew, a detective, with news of the crime. The narrative then follows Nicobar to a fine mansion where he reports to his superior, "the Major," and encounters an attractive woman named Lorene. The serial continues with further complications involving the criminal society and its deadly methods.
