Michiganensian. [1900]

And now gintlemin Oi would loike to go on at great length on this
subject, but Oi see by your noble and ixpressive countenances that yez
are already in favor of giving me client the verdict, so Oi will lave yez
with me conscience clear, that Oi have done right and yez will lift the
clouds of dispair off the brow of my client by giving him a judgment of
$6,400, against these town swindlers, Chamberlin & Anderson. With this
Oi will lave you to the tender mercies of John Brondig if he has any.
To Her.
T. M. M.
DEEP blue eyes and drooping lashes,
Rosy cheeks and midnight hair;
Smiles that come in lightning flashes,
For her man would do and dare.
All her movements telling graces
That the gods of Greece possessed,
To her finger tips the traces
Of a beauty truly best.
Were I artist I would try
Sketches of her day by day,
Till the beauty of her eye
With my brush I'd steal away.
