Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Mystery of Jockey Hollow" by Cleo F. Garis is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows three college friends, Arden Blake, Terry Landry, and Sim Westover, as they embark on a thrilling adventure centered around the haunted and mysterious Sycamore Hall. As they explore the area, which has ties to the Revolutionary War, the girls encounter supernatural elements and uncover a deeper mystery involving ghostly inhabitants and the fate of the historic mansion. At the start of the narrative, the three friends are excitedly preparing to ride out to Jockey Hollow. They are intrigued by tales of the historic Sycamore Hall, rumored to be haunted. During their initial ride, they experience a fright when workmen, seemingly scared by ghostly occurrences, run out of the mansion, suggesting that something strange is indeed afoot. The girls decide to investigate further, their curiosity piqued by stories of a wounded soldier and the courageous woman who had hidden him during the war. Their curiosity unfolds into an intricate mystery involving the ghost stories of the area, lost deeds, and the fate of Granny Howe, the keeper of its history.
