June 10th, 1936
To Mr. and Mrs. David Allison,-—
Four decades ago Dave came home
from the West,
To see kith and kin and have a good
rest;
For he had worked daily with might
and jiest,
To make his prairie home Mani
toba’s best.
At Ashrow Farm, Frank Hamilton’s
third daughter,
Modest and good and none any
smarter;Took this gallant’s fancy, so, in earn
est he sought her,For, said he to himself to win her
I’ve got-ter.
She is just the size to fit my shanty
Diligent, frugal, cheerful and cantie
In every way she suits -my fancy
If I can’t get her call me ‘Nancy.’
Maggie long had wanted to roam,
At least one hundred miles from
home;
So when David said "Please Maggie
come
And keep my house while I till the
loam.”z
She answered gladly next time you
■come here,
I go back with you and spend every
year;
Caring for you, looking ..after your
gear,
Making a real home of goodness and
cheer.
On June the 10th forty years ago
today,
Mid a gathering of the clan from
near and far away;
A knot was tied so tight from it’they
cannot stray,
It binds them man and wife while
an the earth they stay.
They labored together early
late,
Cheerfully helping the Church
State;
Teaching their chidlren all evil to
hate,
Now their upright lives
compensate.
We welcome you kindly
today,
But sorry you longer with
stay;
We hope that your visit
and bright
And love and
al way.
