Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Harper's Round Table, November 5, 1895," is a collection of illustrated periodical stories and articles published in the late 19th century. The opening portion introduces a narrative titled "For King or Country," which takes place in the context of the American Revolution in New Jersey in 1772. It hints at themes of childhood adventure and family dynamics, focusing on the Frothingham twins and their interactions with their sister Grace and a servant named Cato, likely setting the stage for various adventures they will embark on. The beginning of "Harper's Round Table" introduces readers to the everyday lives of the Frothingham twins, William and George, and their sister Grace, who are depicted enjoying a day by a brook near Stanham Mills. The scene is lively, filled with the innocent joys of childhood, including fishing and imaginations of grandeur as they await a relative's visit. This playful existence is disrupted when a sudden commotion occurs, which foreshadows the children encountering adventure or danger, establishing an engaging premise for the subsequent unfolding narrative.
