"The Boy Scouts on the Roll of Honor" by Robert Shaler is a fictional adventure story likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around a group of Boy Scouts from the Oakvale Troop, particularly focusing on the character Hugh Hardin, who is portrayed as a capable and resourceful scout. The story explores themes of bravery, camaraderie, and the principles of scouting through their various exploits, including a nut-gathering trip that leads to a more significant adventure involving a quest to rescue a missing scout. At the start of the book, the three main characters—Hugh Hardin, Billy Worth, and Arthur Cameron—are returning from a productive nut-gathering expedition, excited about the impact their efforts will have on children at an orphan asylum. As they discuss their troop's organization and their fellow Scouts, they are approached by Gus Merrivale, who proposes spending the Thanksgiving holidays at a deserted logging camp owned by his family. Intrigued, the boys agree to join him, unaware that this journey will soon lead them into a perilous adventure where they will face a fierce storm and the challenge of locating Gus's missing brother, Sam, who has fallen into a troubled life. The opening chapter sets the tone for an engaging tale of friendship and resilience in the face of adversity. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
