Content Description
This is a four-page manuscript of a short story entitled The Man in the Shadow, attributed to "Willard." Handwritten note on the cover page reads "Property of Keith K. McDaniel."
The author of this piece may be Richard Washburn Child, who in addition to being a writer was the American ambassador to Italy between 1921 and 1924.
