Abstract
A December 16th (year not indicated) issue of the Nelson brothers' periodical that focuses on stories of rugged pioneer life from around their imaginary world, presented in a two-column format. The cover indicates the issue was published by E.H. Nelson & Co. This issue begins with chapter 3 of a four part story titled "The Border War." The story tells of two unidentified men sneaking past Union men. Following this story is a biography of their character Geo. Washington, president and founder of Forest Continent. The biography tells of his upbringing on Big Continent, his founding of Forest Continent and how he worked with William Little and Burt Green (sometimes referred to as Birt) after establishing his republic. Closing this issue are instructions for trapping rabbits by Burt Green that include diagrams of a box trap and a snare.
