N2  - "Fairview Boys at Camp Mystery; or, the Old Hermit and His Secret" by Frederick Gordon is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows three boys, Sammy Brown, Bob Bouncer, and Frank Haven, as they navigate the ups and downs of childhood, including encounters with a former bully, an unexpected earthquake at school, and their decision to investigate strange happenings on Pine Island, where they suspect an elusive hermit might be hiding a secret.   The opening of the book introduces us to the main characters as they discuss the return of a bully named Jed Burr and their excitement for the new school year, following a fire that had delayed its start. However, the day takes a dramatic turn when an earthquake shakes their school, sending the students into a flurry of panic. After the commotion settles, the boys hear about a mysterious hermit said to live on Pine Island—the perfect opportunity for Sammy, who is intrigued by tales of adventure, treasure, and mystery. The narrative sets the stage for an engaging series of escapades while highlighting themes of friendship, bravery, and the connection to childhood curiosity.
