Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Rushton Boys at Treasure Cove; Or, The Missing Chest of Gold" by Spencer Davenport is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a group of boys, primarily Fred and Teddy Rushton along with their friends, as they embark on an adventurous summer vacation along the Maine coast. Their escapades take a turn when they encounter a storm at sea and rescue a boy named Ross Montgomery, who is searching for a lost chest of gold connected to his father's past. At the start of the narrative, readers are introduced to the Rushton boys and their friends as they sail on a small boat, the "Ariel", enjoying their vacation. The mood shifts dramatically when a looming storm forces them to seek shelter. During this tense moment at sea, they spot Ross being thrown overboard from his distressed motorboat, prompting Fred to dive in and rescue him. This act of bravery leads to an intriguing backstory about Ross's quest to find a hidden treasure related to his father's troubled history involving a sunken ship and a chest of gold. As the boys settle into their new camaraderie, they become embroiled in the mystery of uncovering this lost treasure in the days to come.
