Abstract
"The Chit Chat", presented as an illustrated weekly paper in a two-column format published by William J. Little and Ethan F. Allen, the alter egos of Arthur and Walter Nelson respectively, is a fictional publication intended for boys and girls. This issue of The Chit Chat features chapters from the serialized stories, "Skating When It Is Not Fun," "Allen's Regulars on the Border," "How the Hunts Became Rich" and "Lost Mountain," many of which feature skirmishes between settlers, including the popular character Ethan Allen, and Indians. "Lost Mountain" relays the tale of two boys who purchase a mountain from their town despite warnings that it is haunted, and decide to build a hunting cabin on the mountaintop. This edition also includes poetry; a "grand premium list" with advertisements for books, games and other offerings; and several pages of illustrations of the principle warships, cruisers and torpedo boats of Big Continent and Long Continent.
