Summary "Harper's Young People, November 29, 1881" by Various is a children's magazine written in the late 19th century. The publication contains a mix of stories, illustrations, and informative articles aimed at engaging young readers. The opening portion features a narrative titled "How Tom Primrose Protected His Father," which hints at themes of adventure, bravery, and the importance of family. The beginning of "Harper's Young People, November 29, 1881" introduces Mr. Primrose, who returns home after a taxing trial involving criminals, only to express worry for his safety due to their potential revenge. His son, Tom, eager to prove himself, pleads to help with a mission but is met with skepticism from his family. In a comedic twist, Tom's attempts to prepare and depart lead to a series of mishaps, including misplacing his hat and ultimately missing the train. Nevertheless, he eventually sets out on a journey fraught with excitement and tension, as he suspects that the very criminals his father prosecuted might be on their way to seek retribution against him. This opening sets the stage for a tale of youthful determination despite the odds, capturing the magazine’s aim to entertain and inspire its young audience.
