1902 · 32 pages

This 1902 pulp serial by Oll Coomes features "Happy Harry, the Wild Boy of the Woods," a sixteen-year-old frontier youth living in the forests bordering Lake St. Clair over fifty years prior. Armed with rifle, pistols, and hunting knife, accompanied by a massive St. Bernard dog named Belshazzar, Harry possesses exceptional woodcraft skills and an affinity for bird-calling. While traversing dense woods, his dog discovers blood and an unconscious Indian girl named Eeleelah, an Ottawa maiden approximately sixteen years old, buried beneath leaves with a severe head wound. Harry tenderly extracts and treats her injuries, bathing her wounds and staunching the bleeding. When Eeleelah feigns unconsciousness from fear, Harry departs but secretly observes her recovery and approach. She eventually speaks, acknowledging her rescue, though refusing to explain her injuries. As they converse, a stranger approaches through the forest.
