We wish to avoid getting stuck in the bog.
The only thing I know about Samuel Sokobin is that he once signed my great-grandfather's passport application at Shanghai. The validity of the U.S. passport cannot be questioned, never mind about Sokobin's personal domestic situation. He was a Jewish man who married an Irish woman. Even so, these domestic facts are of little or no concern to those persons whose passports were signed by the man at work. Needless to say.
