CLEVELANDPREFACEMy Dear Boys:Allow me to introduce to you my friend, Dick Hamilton.Dick, here are the boys, thousands of them.Boys, here is Dick Hamilton.Now I hope you will shake hands and become good friends; not doing as I have sometimes seen boys do,when introduced, hang back and size each other up, as if distrusting each other.Go right up to Dick, get a good grip on his hand, and squeeze for all you're worth. I'll wager you can't makehim cry "enough!"I know he will like you, boys, and I hope you'll like Dick. He's a fine fellow, if I do say it myself, for I'm asort of relation to him. He's got lots of money, but he uses it in the right way, to help his friends, and it doesn'tkeep him from getting into trouble.I have endeavored to give you a story of Dick and his fortune; how he tried to fulfil the strange condition of his mother's will; how he escaped the toils of the sharper, was the target for many cranks, as well aswell-meaning persons; how he aided the "fresh-air kids," and, finally, when the gold mines had failed, how heworked hard to escape the clutches of his uncle Ezra.As you have taken kindly to some of the other books I have been privileged to write for you, I hope you willlike this one; and now, if you have read thus far, you may turn the pages and find out what Dick had to do inorder to retain his millions.
