The Ignorance of Step Hen

The Boy Scouts on the Trail

by St. George Henry RATHBORNE (1854 - 1938)

The Silver Fox Patrol is up in the Maine Woods, hiking and hunting for big game. The boys find out that guns, and other explosives, can be fun, and dangerous, too! But all the fun comes to an end when some fugitives enter the woods nearby. Herbert Carter is one of many pseudonyms used by St George Rathborne. (Summary by Ann Boulais)
