"The Heroes of the School; or, The Darewell Chums Through Thick and Thin" by Allen Chapman is a young adult novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a group of four friends known as the Darewell Chums—Ned Wilding, Fenn Masterson (nicknamed "Stumpy"), Frank Roscoe, and Bart Keene—as they navigate the ups and downs of school life, friendship, and various adventures. The initial chapters introduce a sequence of events at their high school, focusing on the expulsion of a student, the frictions that arise, and hints of mischief, setting the stage for the camaraderie and challenges faced by the main characters. At the start of the story, the tension unfolds as Fenn is worried about a potential expulsion of another student named John Newton, who he has a past connection with. Following John's expulsion, the boys—particularly Stumpy—discuss their friendship, past antics, and the repercussions of their schoolboy trickery. As the narrative progresses, the prologue of their adventures introduces humor and camaraderie amongst the boys, showcasing their carefree school days filled with pranks, games, and friendships that define their youthful experiences at Darewell High School. The opening sets a light tone that promises a blend of comedy and adventure as they navigate their lives and challenges. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
