We lives down yender wbere the waves Ocoee howlin' up the shore, And rants and roars and rips and raves, And won't tell what it's for. We baint se stylish as folks thinks, No matter what they says, Pot beaps al snow sleets through the chinks i These windy winter. days. And then we don't get "stacks" to eat, Although there's lots to drink, But too much water and no meat Keeps 'granny, thin, I think. Still Granny's game and never ones For little things like that; She only hangs her head and sighs, Till I feel mighty 'flat. For 1 love her wrinkly foetid., what's left of her . ban.; And when I sees her bothor'd, It's more en I can bare. Last night the man came for the rent, It war'nt very much ; He left with granny's last red cent, And poor dead grandpa's watch! Then granny sesm'd to kind of faint, Lands, how she hung her head, Then, lookin', up justlike a saint, She anril'd at me and said, "Ole Billy, boy, I'm goin' far, Yes, very far away,, Beyond the highest twinkle star, To spend my Xmas day." She said a heap of 'real good things, 'Bout flow'rs, and figs, and dates, And lova, and peace, and angel's wings, And shinny golden gates. And she call'd me "noble Billy," But like a great big "sap," T bawl'd out soft and silly, And blubber'd in bar lap• She strok'd me till I fell asleep And last of all I mind, Her kissin' me slap on the cheek; For she was orful kind. And in the night I dream'd a dream, It warn't nothin' bad, Ter frighten yer or make yer scream, It rather made me glad. I dreamt that me and Granny Griegs Was sailin' in a boat, When all at onat two big, wild pigs And a buntin' Billy -goat, Came skitin' down the river bank, And in the water flopp'd ; Lands, how that goat did buck and yank, And how that river chopp'd I Then each wild porker pok'd his snout In under that boat's keel; And tumbl'd me and granny out Just like as it was real. Then just as we were ig,in' to sink, Them very same wild hogs, As quick as you could say "twink, twlnk," Turn'd into two black dogs. And one straight up to granny swam, The other steer'd for me, And (gentle as a little lamb, Them dogs appear'd to be. We cuddled 'em about the neck, And tan 'd with all our might ; But, still, they never splash'd a s peck And didn't bark or bite. Then all at onct, you'll hardly think As how it could be so, They tnrn'd again .as quick as wink To swans as white as snow. So me and granny clam' right on The middle of their backs, And, lands, you bet we soon gotwarsx ; The feathers was in "stacks." You've seen white clouds asailin' past The full moon in the night; That float so feathery and so fast And get so full of light. Well, slicker far than even that Them swans they sail'd along, Their feet a keepin' time as pat As if they sing'd a song. You've seen them crimson colors when The sun goes down to bed, And all the sea a glitterin' With shaky streaks of rod. ' Well, somethin' sort of like to that, The river kind o' linolc'd; As if it was a pearly mat Laid winding ways and crook'd. We sailed along for hours and hours, Till bye and bye the nilgtt Friel ev'rythin' except the f cw'rs, ' Which kap on 'gettin' bright. Then ale at cant, as quick as scat, The flow'rs got a face; Then, stead of flbw'rs, angels sat In ev'ry flrower's place. And, oh, we seed such fancy things, It seem'd a fairy land, Where all the harps had golden strings, And sounded like a band. c And best of all there grow'd right up A. great big Xmas • tree, From out a great bag candy cup, With suthin' on for me. And soon an angel hollor'd out, "Come forward, William Griog," But though I pui4'd and yank't about, I couldn't novo a peg. That made the angel rippin' mad, incl in this book he wrote, That, thin' as I was so bad, I'd have to ride the goat. Then all at onct the dear old swan, Stopp'd toastin' at my toes; Aud 11.ke it bullet from a gun Up m the air I goes. • And down I comes soon afterwards A straddle of a goat;, It was the same old ppiece of goods. That chas'd as in ilio boat. He jolted suthin' horrible, And, though it was .a dream, I1 got so hautr'd unbearable I waken'd with a sureaan. Bnt, even then I didn't feel. As it I was right wise; • For granny satso cold and still, ,And steel with, both her eyes. • And I hates 10 sae her botlanx'd, Its morc'n I can bear ; For I levee her wrinkly foretd And what's 1eft of her hair. Now, denier, do please come and a Thismerry Xmas day, Why gunny stares so still at 1 And -Sint a weed to sea! 11k 1' 013 T. a ; NO USE Ole rf'i5 LEOS.
