"Kingsford, Quarter" by Ralph Henry Barbour is a novel written in the early 20th century. This coming-of-age story revolves around a young protagonist, Evan Kingsford, as he navigates the challenges and camaraderie of life at Riverport School, a boys' boarding school. The narrative explores themes of friendship, identity, and the trials of adapting to new environments, particularly through Evan's experiences with his roommate Rob Langton and the other students. The opening of the book introduces Evan as he arrives at the school, encumbered by his heavy luggage and the anxiety of being a newcomer. After a somewhat comical encounter with an older student, Frank Hopkins, Evan is warmly welcomed into his new room by Rob, who quickly becomes a friend. As they bond over shared interests like football and the rigors of school life, fleeting references are made to the boys' personalities and interactions, hinting at the novel's mix of humor and schoolboy adventures. The chapter effectively sets the stage for Evan's journey of self-discovery and the relationships he will form during his time at Riverport. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
