UyHE PLEDGE.

THE PLEDGE
By THE BARD OF MARBLE HALL.
In Baltimore famed for ladies fair,
Lived a beautiful girl with haxen hair
And bonny blue eyes with LIQUID light,
And roseate lips, glorious sight.
The youngsters fell in love by DOZENS
Friends and acquaintance, strangers and cousins;
But she CROCHET had got in her head
And said she determined never to wed,
Until she loved handsome youth
Who would grant all her requests in truth,
And bind him fully never to break
The pledge he had taken for her sake
The young men stood aghast with fear;
Some whacked their boots some pulled their hair;
Some said twas religion, some said twas money;
But it took them aback and they felt quite funny.
Among them there fine young man;
Says he. Il love her well as | can,
Now I'll make her the promise both open and free.
The fair one stepped up to his side
And said, Should now be your bride,
You must promise here before all,
To buy your clothes at MARBLE HALL.
No other can suit a husband of mine
The coats are so handsome the pants divine"
Says Johnny, laughing, "I dear little elf
If you like them so well, get pair for yourself.
We offer unusual inducement in all kinds of Cloth
ing and Furnishing Goods together with superior
line of piece goods for custom work. Boys Clothing
a special feature.
