This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the original. Due to its age, it may contain imperfections such as marks, notations, marginalia and flawed pages.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Several chapters of this 1900-1901 tale are set in "Old Louisville." The Little Colonel and the Two Little Knights of Kentucky have grown a bit, and are joined by the Waltons, modeled after the family of General H. W. Lawton, a fallen hero of the Spanish American War. The story revolves around the search for a little girl who has been "kidnapped" by her drunken father. Yet the real interest may lie in the imagery of Victorian Louisville, good and bad, its values and mores (also good and bad), as well as the descriptions of Victorian holiday celebrations. Well known early in the 20th Century was the Halloween party at the Haunted House of Hartwell Hollow (the house really existed, but burned down by the 1930s).
