Abstract
A March 11 issue from an unidentified year of the Nelson brothers' periodical featuring stories of rugged adventure from around their fictional world. The front page indicates the periodical was "published by W.R. Nelson." This issue, presented in a two-column format, begins with the conclusion of the story "Adventure on New Poplington" by Walter Nelson. In this story the ship Sunbeam faces the Indians, battling them upstream and eventually forcing their retreat. Oval Island features in the "Places of Note" section providing a detailed description of the island along with a map. The Second Battle of Poplington is described in the next feature recounting how Burt Green (sometimes referred to as Birt) and William Little are forced to retreat in defeat. The story is to be continued in a future issue. Concluding this issue is an extensive "Condensed News of the Week" section updating the readers on the explorations, agriculture and battles happening around their world. Included are New Poplington, Big Continent, United Division, Long Continent, Round Continent and Chipewa.
