Maud reading Daffy down dilly
when rap rap rap once again assails
the door which Maud again proceeds
to open, which this time admits
the genial smiling face of Jimmy Morgan
which I have no difficulty
in recognizing. Where are all the
folks asks Jim in his hearty off hand way.
Gone to Dignams replied I.
Come and please be seated.
"Why I was told you were having
a dance here to night and as I
was at the Post Office and while so near
thought I'd come in awhile" 'Sorry James you
are disapointed James said I
but we have no dance here and dont
know as we ever will have. Well, said
Jim, "I'll go home and read the Whig
(which he was carrying in his hand.)
and there upon he took his departure.
One more Maud and I are quietly
engaged each in our respective work. Maud
saying I wonder who'll come next.
