"The Merriweather Girls in Quest of Treasure" by Lizette M. Edholm is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century.

The opening of the book introduces the girls at a railroad station, eagerly anticipating their vacation trip to the southwestern U.S. They are excited about the luxurious train they will travel on and share a mix of emotions from joy to a hint of homesickness.
