"Copper Coleson's Ghost" by Edward P. Hendrick is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set in the fictional town of Truesdell, the story revolves around a group of teenage friends who become intrigued by the mysterious and abandoned Coleson house, rumored to be haunted. The main characters, including Ned Blake and his newly acquainted friend Dick Somers, embark on an adventure that intertwines their youthful camaraderie with elements of mystery and ghostly legends. At the start of the book, we are introduced to Ned Blake and his friends as they engage in typical teenage activities of summer, including climbing trees and working out in makeshift gyms.
