| Summary | "St. Nicholas Magazine for Boys and Girls, Vol. 5, July 1878, No. 9" by Various is a historical magazine aimed at children, published during the late 19th century. This edition includes a range of stories and articles designed to captivate young readers, immersing them in adventures and lessons of valor, morality, and creativity. One of the primary narratives within this issue focuses on the bravery of a young girl named Mary Anna, who risks her life to save a child during a chaotic British invasion. The opening of the magazine introduces readers to the serene island of St. John, once threatened by the British siege during the American Revolutionary War. It unfolds the story of the Gibbes family, highlighting the father, Robert, who, despite being disabled, cherishes his children and their shared joy in their picturesque home. However, the narrative shifts dramatically when the British forces invade the "Peaceful Retreat," capturing the family, and subsequently leads to a ferocious battle. As the family attempts to escape under fire, it is Mary Anna who bravely volunteers to return for her lost sibling, showcasing her courage as she navigates the dangers of war to reunite her family. This powerful tale sets the tone for both adventure and moral lessons reflective of the period, making it an engaging read for young audiences. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
