ABSTRACT

THIS tale, like that of Louis Guttierez soi-disant Baron de Agra, deals with one who started life as a novice in a monastery. But James Robertson was not a renegade who fled to the secular world in disgrace like the Spanish friar. When his strange episode of secret service was over, he returned to the community in which he had been reared, and lived there to the end of his days, much respected, and the patron of a benevolent institution of which he had become the founder.
