Listen to me.

Ireland and England are not the only places in the world.

My uncle came here to Virginia a poor man.
He is now immensely rich.

He had little to begin with, but he was young like you--indeed, a little older than you--when he first came.
He invested wisely, worked bravely, and his wealth grew fast.

No man needs a fortune to start the business of life in this country.
He can get plenty of land for almost nothing; he can get credit for planting and furnishing his land, and, if he has friends, the credit is sure.
All America is ready for "the likes of you." Think it over, and meanwhile please know there has been placed with the firm in Dublin money enough to bring you here with comfort.
