The Strange Case of the Missing Hero

by Frank Holby

Many magazines across the U.S. featured a flag on the cover in this patriotic month. In this second Probability Zero story of the issue, Elliot Gallant, hero to the people and beacon light of courage, was the first man to travel through time; Sebastian Lelong, editor of the Encyclopedia Galactica, aims to find out why he never returned.

This is the earliest story that I’ve spotted anywhere with the time traveler coming to know his own mother.

Elliot Gallant went back into time thirty years. He liked the peaceful days of yesteryear. He married, had a son.

“The Strange Case of the Missing Hero” by Frank Holby, Astounding, July 1942.
