Proclamation 9602: Loyalty Day, 2017
April 28, 2017
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
Today, we celebrate Law Day, as we have since President Dwight D. Eisenhower first commemorated it in 1958, and reflect upon our great heritage of liberty, justice, and equality. Our Founders risked their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor in defense of these values. More than 240 years ago, they set pen to paper and declared to the world "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." The Declaration of Independence thus set our Nation on its revolutionary and transformative path to protecting people's inherent, individual rights and liberties from the tyranny of an elite few who might use the powers of the state to trample upon them.
To protect the values for which they fought, the Framers of our Constitution created a government of limited and separated powers that enables the rule of law to prevail over the whims of government officials. As the great Justice Antonin Scalia frequently observed, every dictatorship has a bill of rights, but paper rights alone will not preserve liberty. It is our Constitution's clear division of the sovereign's power vesting the power to create laws in the Congress, the power to execute laws in the President, and the power to interpret laws in an independent judiciary that enables us to remain free and in control of our government.
Recognizing, as President Ronald Reagan did, that "freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction," today we pay tribute to the government of laws, and not of men, that forms the foundation of our freedom. Therefore, on this Law Day, we rededicate ourselves to the rule of law, to the separation of powers, and, in the words of President Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, to the preservation of "government of the people, by the people, for the people."
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, in accordance with Public Law 87–20, as amended, do hereby proclaim May 1, 2017, as Law Day, U.S.A. I urge all Americans, including government officials, to observe this day by reflecting upon the importance of the rule of law in our Nation and displaying the flag of the United States in support of this national observance.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of May, in the year of our Lord two thousand seventeen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-first.

Proclamation 9599: Older Americans Month, 2017
April 28, 2017
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
Older Americans are our Nation's memory. Some of today's grandparents and great-grandparents were born during the Great Depression, lived through the Second World War, witnessed the rise and fall of Communism, fought in Korea and Vietnam, marched with Martin Luther King, Jr., and watched the first man walk on the Moon. Now, they surf the internet and share family photos on their phones in a world that is richer and freer than the one into which they were born. Listening to the stories of our older citizens allows younger Americans to appreciate the country they inherited and gain the wisdom necessary to make it even better for their children and grandchildren.
As we celebrate Older Americans Month, we take the opportunity to thank our seniors and recognize the enormous contributions they make to the Nation. Indeed, one of modern life's greatest blessings are the medical advancements that make it possible for older people to remain healthy and active well into the later stages of life. We are blessed to have their presence, their love, and their unmatched perspective for our families.
Our elders also have an unprecedented opportunity to make a difference in our communities by sharing their talents, wisdom, and time. America's seniors give back in a myriad of ways, working with children in our schools, providing assistance to the sick and shut-in, and inventing new and innovative products. They have made our Nation stronger through their experience, knowledge, and willingness to share with others.
Finally, during this month we also recognize that, as we age, many of us will need more assistance from our friends and family. We therefore recommit ourselves to ensuring that older Americans are not neglected or abused, receive the best healthcare available, live in suitable homes, have adequate income and economic opportunities, and enjoy freedom and independence in their golden years. They deserve ‑‑ and we owe them ‑‑ nothing less.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim May 2017 as Older Americans Month. I call upon all Americans to honor our elders, acknowledge their contributions, care for those in need, and reaffirm our country's commitment to older Americans this month and throughout the year.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-eighth day of April, in the year of our Lord two thousand seventeen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-first.

Proclamation 9597: National Foster Care Month, 2017
April 28, 2017
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
During the month of May, we observe National Foster Care Month and we celebrate those who have opened their homes and their hearts to children in need and those who have devoted their careers to serving America's foster youth.
Americans throughout the country are serving their communities as foster parents, mentors, respite care providers, and volunteers. In the last year alone, America's foster families opened their homes and hearts to more than 300,000 young people.
But we can do more. Every child deserves a safe and supportive family. Ensuring that children grow up with the opportunity to reach their full potential is a top priority of my Administration. For thousands of children whose biological families are unable to support them, foster families provide a secure and nurturing environment that is essential for a successful start in life.
Foster families serve young people from all walks of life, from infants awaiting adoption, to children seeking reunification with their families and teens in need of safe havens from negative influences. In many cases, they offer our Nation's most at-risk children a second chance at the American Dream.
A tremendous demand exists for foster parents and families across the country. Together as a Nation, we must raise awareness about this need and inspire volunteers to step forward and invest in the lives of our Nation's youth through our foster care system.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim May 2017 as National Foster Care Month. I call upon all Americans to observe this month by taking time to help children and youth in foster care and to recognize the commitment of those who touch their lives, particularly celebrating their foster parents and other caregivers.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-eighth day of April, in the year of our Lord two thousand seventeen, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and forty-first.

# Reginald in Russia and Other Sketches/front matter

BY THE SAME AUTHOR
REGINALD
"He is a delightful person. One would not like a rich and octogenarian uncle to suppose that Reginald was one's ideal of conduct and conversation. Yet there is sometimes reason in his paradoxical frivolities, and justice in his practical performances."—Morning Post.
"The book, by reason of its sustained brilliance, may be likened to a Brock's Benefit at the Crystal Palace."—Athenæum.
"Mr. H. H. Munro ('Saki') has one of the lightest and most entertaining touches of the humorists of the day. . . . The book is admirable comedy and free from malice and bad taste."—Queen.
"We feel sure that those who have already made Reginald's acquaintance will be glad to renew it, and that those who know him not will not regret it if they add him to the list of their fictitious (albeit very real) acquaintances, not to say friends."—Westminster Gazette.

EDWARD GALWEY, Esq [Post-Captain of 1802.]
Towards the close of 1797, when the Vanguard of 74 guns was commissioned for the flag of Sir Horatio Nelson, Mr. Galwey was selected by that officer to act as his first Lieutenant, from which circumstance we conclude that he had already served under that celebrated commander, and shared in some of his battles. Be that as it may, we find the following short account of him in a letter from Nelson to Earl St. Vincent, dated May 8, 1798:
“My first Lieutenant, Galwey, has no friends, and is one of the best officers in my ship.”
During the dreadful conflict in Aboukir Bay, Aug. 1, 1798, Lieutenant Galwey was sent in the only boat which had not been cut to pieces by the enemy’s shot, to assist the distressed crew of l’Orient; and subsequently to take possession of le Spartiate. He was promoted to the rank of Commander in consequence of that ever memorable victory; and during the latter part of the war we find him commanding the Plover, an 18-gun sloop, employed on Channel service. His post commission bears date April 29, 1802.
Captain Galwey commanded the Dryad frigate during the ​expedition against Walcheren in 1809; and subsequently on the north coast of Spain, under the orders of the late Sir Robert Mends. On the 23d Dec. 1812, he drove a French national brig of 22 guns, on the rocks near Isle Dieu, where she was completely wrecked: the Dryad on this occasion was hulled several times by shot from the shore, and had her foremast badly wounded, but not a man hurt.
Returning from Newfoundland, Mar. 26, 1814, Captain Galwey fell in with the Clorinde. a French frigate, endeavouring to escape from the Eurotas of 46 guns, with which ship she had had a very severe action on the preceding day, an account of which will be found in our memoir of Sir John Phillimore, Knt., C.B. The enemy, having only his fore-mast standing, and more than one third of his crew already killed and wounded, struck his colours on receiving one shot from the Dryad, after an absurd attempt to obtain terms previous to his surrender; a proposition that would not have been acceded to even by a British brig of 18 guns, then in sight to leeward. Captain Galwey, after towing the captured frigate into port, was put out of commission. He has not since been employed.

THOMAS GALLWEY, Esq. [Commander.]
Obtained a lieutenant’s commission in Sept. 1807; served as such under Captain (now Sir Philip) Broke, the Shannon frigate; and was advanced to his present rank, Mar. 17th, 1812. Since the peace he has been employed in the Preventive and Coast-Guard services.
