Saving a train : A new poem /
McGonagall, William.
[Edinburgh : s.n.,
1899?]
In two columns with a coat of arms above the title.
In verse.
'Composed, January 1899'.
At the top of the sheet in McGonagall's hand - 'Sir Wm. Topaz McGonagall. Poet'.
First lines read: A poor old woman lived on the line of the Ohio Railway, / Where the train passed near by night and day: / She was a widow, with only one daughter, / Who lived with her in a log-hut near a deep gorge of water.
