Summary "The Girl's Own Paper, Vol. XX, No. 990, December 17, 1898" by Various is a periodical publication from the late 19th century, aimed at a young female audience. This particular issue contains a blend of fiction, practical advice, and artistic pursuits, highlighting the lives and interests of girls during that era. One of the featured stories, titled "Our Hero" by Agnes Giberne, revolves around young Roy, who is faced with the emotional challenges of leaving his family behind as he is ordered to travel to Verdun amidst the tumult of war. At the start of "Our Hero," we meet Roy Baron, a thirteen-year-old boy bursting with excitement about his imminent move from Fontainebleau to Verdun. As he shares the news with his mother and other family members, their reactions reveal the tensions underlying their situation as prisoners during turbulent times. While Roy looks forward to seeing a friend, Mademoiselle de St. Roques, he grapples with the impending separation from his family, particularly the emotional weight it carries for his mother. The narrative effectively captures the poignant blend of youthful bravado and familial loyalty against a backdrop of historical conflict, setting the stage for deeper explorations of friendship, bravery, and sacrifice as the story unfolds.
