Topix v5 #4

This anthology issue contains multiple stories, including one about Bishop Neumann's religious work and canonization, detailing his invitation to dine with Emperor Ferdinand and his later stroke in Philadelphia, with a note that more information can be obtained from the Reverend Albert Waible. Another story follows a boy named Jackie who must decide whether to let a wounded soldier named Corporal Roberts keep his dog Lucky, ultimately choosing to give up the dog despite his deep attachment. The issue also features "The Crusades," which depicts the Crusaders' capture of Antioch and the subsequent siege by Turkish forces, showing the desperate conditions of famine and plague within the city walls, and concluding with a pious priest's vision of the Holy Lance that gives hope to the besieged Christian forces.
