The Lost Ruby
Author: Christoph von Schmid
Written in: 1841
Pages: 120
The Lost Ruby is part of the Fireside Collection and the von Schmid Collection
This is the story of young Lieutenant Wildberg and the heavy price he paid for succumbing to the subtle temptation of worldly logic. Though at first his “indiscretion” seemed to accomplish a great and noble good, it eventually brought grief and harm to those he loved. He learned that “even the most trivial lie is an evil seed.” (The second story in this volume is as powerful as The Lost Ruby.)
