| Summary | "Harper's Round Table, June 16, 1896" by Various is a periodical publication written in the late 19th century. This edition features a variety of stories and articles, including fiction such as the historical narrative "A Virginia Cavalier" by Molly Elliot Seawell, which centers on a young George Washington in Virginia. The content reflects the cultural and societal attitudes of the time, celebrating American history and character while entertaining a youthful audience. The opening portion of "A Virginia Cavalier" depicts a serene October afternoon in 1746 Virginia, where young George Washington, equipped with a gun and accompanied by his dog, demonstrates his skills as a natural woodsman. As he sits in peaceful contemplation, an impressive coach passes by, carrying the renowned Earl of Fairfax. Washington recognizes the nobleman from his mother's tales and is inspired to return home in anticipation of the Earl's visit with his family. This charming scene sets the tone for the story, highlighting the themes of youth, discovery, and the imminent connection between ordinary life and the grandeur of historical figures.
