John, Julius, and Henry, or, The band of brothers : in which is introduced the story of Marac-Oublou, the faithful Indian. Also includes: Advice to youth (p. [59]-61).--A fable of a drop of water (p. 61-63). At foot of t.p.: Price four-pence. The three sons of Mr. and Mrs. Wilkinson of Worcestershire grew up to be good men: John was placed in business, Henry took holy orders, and Julius joined the army. Julius was sent to America, ''at that time the seat of civil contention''. He lost a leg, his regiment was vanquished, but General Washington permitted Julius to return to France. On his arrival in London he recounted the story of his faithful native servant who lost his life in saving his master's.

Terminology NoteToronto Public Library recognizes that the term "Indians," used in subject headings such as "Indians of North America", is offensive to many people. Although we currently maintain these headings to adhere to descriptive standards used by libraries worldwide, we and other Canadian libraries are working to replace them with ones that are acceptable to Indigenous Peoples in Canada.
