In Uncle Sam's Study of Expansion Scene: Uncle S am's Retreat, Washington, D. C. Present: Uncle Sam and Orphan Don. Orphan Don: Uncle, I suppose I need not remind you that within a few days I shall be twenty-one years of age. You have always told me that when I should have attained my majority, you would relate to me the secret of my life. Uncle Sam: Yes, my boy, even in the midst of um usual cares of state, I have been thinking of you, and it is with not a little regret that I look forward to the time when our relations as adopted son and foster father must cease. I have not kept you ignorant of the events referred to with any selfish motive. You well know that I should cheerfully give you the benefit of any information which would seem to me, in my greater experience, of Vital importance to you. You were but seven months old the night I found you on the doorsteps of my retreat; that was a long time ago, long in years, but particularly long in the events and achievements of our country. As we seem to be alone, and are not likely to be disturbed to-night, I shall tell you the secret. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
