(William West) Patten, George William Patten, William G. (William Gilbert) Dick Merriwell's Pranks; Or, Lively Times in the Orient Produced by Roger Frank and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Dick Merriwell's Pranks; Or, Lively Times in the Orient" by Burt L. Standish is a novel written in the early 20th century. It follows the adventures of Dick Merriwell and his companion, Bradley Buckhart, as they travel with their professor through exotic locations like Constantinople. The story is infused with humor and mischief, as the characters get caught up in a series of comical misunderstandings and cultural clashes. The opening of the novel introduces Dick and Brad as they approach the mesmerizing city of Constantinople with their professor, Zenas Gunn. As they enjoy the scenic beauty, Gunn hilariously becomes infatuated with Miss Sarah Ann Ketchum, a rather unremarkable woman from Boston, leading to a series of comedic exchanges. The boys' amusement turns to concern when they encounter the jealousy of Major Mowbry Fitts, another American on the same boat, culminating in an absurd duel involving eggs instead of weapons. This sets the tone for a lively story filled with adventure, humor, and a touch of intrigue as they navigate both cultural differences and personal rivalries.
