Clifton, Harry,1832-1872.
[Scotland? : s.n.,
1860-1870?]
Dated from examination of text and style.
On board the "Kangaroo" - first lines read: Once I was a waterman, / And lived at home at ease; / Now I am a mariner, / And plough the angry seas; / I thought I'd like a seafarin' life, / So bid my love "adoo," / And shipped as cook and stewart, boys, / On board o' the "Kangaroo".
The bonnie lassie's answer - first lines read: Farewell to Glasgow, / Likewise to Lanarkshire, / And farewell my dearest parents, / For I'll never see you mair; / For the want of pocket money, / And for the want of cash, / Makes mony a bonny laddie, / to leave his bonny lass.
In two columns with an illustration above the second.
Two ballads.
