Summary "Harper's Round Table, June 9, 1896" by Various is a periodical publication written in the late 19th century. This edition features a collection of stories, poetry, and articles that likely reflect the social and cultural context of the time. The captivating opening portion introduces readers to "The Feast of King Red Coat," a light-hearted yarn narrated by an Old Sailor, sharing his amusing and adventurous maritime tales, which are rich in vivid imagery and wit. The opening of this edition sets the scene on a foggy morning at a seaside pier, where two boys, Henry and George, encounter the Old Sailor, who begins recounting a humorous story of his travels aboard the steamer "Queen o' Spades". As he shares his escapades, including his interactions with the native king of a foreign land, the Old Sailor captivates the boys with his professional sailor's perspective, colorful vernacular, and the comical challenges he faced. The narrative style is engaging and playful, promising a blend of adventure and humor in the tales that follow. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
