TIE ORPHAN STRANGER.
Kind partons hear my simple tale
Nor think am too bold:
Twill make each blnomnr cheek turn nal,
Though IN not five years old.
From Scotia hills induced to roam
My parents crossed the waves
They sought to find peaceful home
But found it in-the grave.
BY the red Indians bloody hand,
They both, alas were slain:
My father knelt before their band
My mother wept in vain.
As wildly to her tl.robbing hear,
Her tender babe she prcss'd
They with a cruel dart
Trans6xd it to her breast
They dragged my brother to the flame
Oh, how he wept and pray'd;
Just then plying stranger came
And kindly gave aid.
Another stranger brought me here
And have found home,
Where gentle ladies dry each te ar
And Indians dare not come
Oh blessed Asylum home of peace
That fills my heart with JOY!
Friends may your blessings never cease
Prays your poor Orphan Boy.
