Tonight, we shall meet a mysterious relative who lives in the mountains of Appalachia! Or rather, we shall discover him, since he is deceased when our story opens.

The shrewdest among you will have already guessed—Uncle Ashford! And was he a RICH uncle, I hear someone ask? Well. That depends on what “rich” means to you. Financially? Not really. Intellectually? Most certainly! But I’ll remind you that not all information is safe, and some doors of knowledge should stay closed.

This story is called “Uncle Ashford”, and was written by A.G. Hilton
