Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Humorous Sketches and Addresses
A father holds his only infant in his hands, and starts it off on its first move at crawling. Reluctantly he takes away his kind, sustaining arms until at last the little one is left to do and dare alone.
Emotions kind and tender fill his parent heart, as eagerly he watches all its first attempts. How easily his mind runs out to castle building, and he sees the crawling infant stand erect and move with manly mien; a very lord among his fellows.
