Phillip Browning, convinced that the mysterious deaths of ten of his colleagues is the result of a mummy's curse, hopes to avoid the fate of the others by returning King Pharatime's treasures to his tomb. Ditch diggers Stanley Wright and Aloysius C. Whittaker answer a newspaper advertisement to join Browning's Egyptian expedition. Whittaker presents himself (unconvincingly) as an Egyptian expert, and Wright—who is immediately attracted to Browning's daughter Mary —makes a poor impression because he suffers spells of forgetfulness that can be cured only by taking a nap. Browning hires them anyway. On board the ship to Egypt the next day the boys meet Sterling, who is part of the expedition. Catfish, a stowaway, is invited to join the group after he mentions that he is from Cairo—although Whittaker and Wright later discover that he is from Cairo, Illinois. After the group arrives at their hotel, Sterling disappears mysteriously and a threatening note is found.
