The Littlest Rebel1935

Virginia 'Virgie' Cary:
Uncle Billy, I don't think it was very polite to chase everybody out of my party like that.

Uncle Billy:
Their mammies have to take them home quickly. You see, honey child, they's gonna be a war.

Virginia 'Virgie' Cary:
What's war?

Uncle Billy:
War is a lot of soldiers and battle where men kill each other with guns.

Virginia 'Virgie' Cary:
Really and truly kill each other? Why?

Uncle Billy:
Seems to me, honey child, no-one knows why. I heard a white gentleman say there's a man up north who wants to free the slaves.

Virginia 'Virgie' Cary:
What does that mean? Free the slaves?

Uncle Billy:
I don't know what it means myself.
