Summary: "The Girl's Own Paper, Vol. XX, No. 979, October 1, 1898," by Various is a periodical publication crafted in the late 19th century. This issue features a serialized narrative titled "Our Hero," a tale set against the backdrop of the Franco-English War, exploring themes of family, duty, and the social constructs of the time. Within the text, readers encounter Colonel Baron, who is intent on taking his wife and son, Roy, to France despite the looming threat of war, showcasing the tension between personal desires and national conflict. At the start of this publication, Colonel Baron is engaged in a heated discussion with Mrs. Bryce, a friend, over his intention to travel to France with his son Roy amidst rising tensions between England and France. Mrs. Bryce adamantly opposes the idea, foreseeing the dangers of war. While the family dynamics and the contrasting views on travel during unstable times are explored, readers are introduced to young Roy, who is caught between his parents' differing opinions. The narrative sets the stage for ensuing adventures and challenges faced by the characters, engaging readers in a historical context that reflects societal norms of the era.
