While the United States of America was being settled, people liked to make up stories about how things got to be the way they were. About why the deserts were so hot. Where prairie dogs came from. Things like that, and lots more. The storytellers had to have a "hero" for their stories. One of their heroes was called Febold Feboldson. They said he was a farmer in Nebraska. Febold as always trying to be helpful, the storytellers said, and a lot of things might be different today if he hadn't tried to be quite so helpful.
