| Summary | "Dick the Bank Boy; Or, A Missing Fortune" by Frank V. Webster is a novel aimed at a young audience, likely written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Dick Morrison, a determined young boy struggling to support his widowed mother amidst financial difficulties. Dick's aspirations for self-sufficiency and his rivalry with another boy named Ferd Graylock set the stage for adventures that test his character and resourcefulness. At the start of the tale, readers are introduced to the protagonist, Dick, as he encounters Ferd on a narrow road. A brief skirmish arises, illustrating the boys' long-standing rivalry. As Dick navigates his challenges—primarily the need to find work to help his mother—he reflects on his responsibilities and dreams of a better future. The opening chapters delve into his determination to secure employment, his willingness to assist others, and his hopeful spirit despite adversities, foreshadowing his eventual opportunity at the local bank.
