OLD BALLAD
One day a poor o$d farmer was lean-
ing on his gate,
The snail man brought a paper which
unto him did state:
"Mr. Hepburn's' new hog bonus goes
back six months from date,
But whoever gets the bonus mush
show certificate.
He must have sold on rail grade and
gob his statements back
And anyone who' sold flat won't get
in on the whack."
The poor old farmer wilted and fell
against a slat, -
Said he, "That rascal drover, he
bought shy hogs all flat."
The poor oit man lay dying, star-
vation was his foe, -
And from his frizzled whisker's, there
came these words of woe$
E. Little' and Mrs. A. Hebden,
A very enjoyable. time was spent
on Friday ovening when the W A,'
held asocial at the. church,' A good
prevam was provided by the ladies
at the Close of the pi•ograrti..
Chorus:
Sell all your hogs on rail grade and
get in on the jack,
Don't let the drover fool you but get
your statements 'back,
These words he horsely whispered
and fell hack on his bed,
Because he had no 'statements, the
poor old man was dead.
