There's fhem that eatstin they're hustih
And thens thstdrinkstill they'r blind
And them that's snuf1in and spooney;
But the best of all, to my mind,
(And Eve been around inmy time, boys
Andfcavorted with any you hke,)
Was Big Bill, that lived in the slashes,
We called him Big Bill o'Pike.
If he put his hand to his bowie,
Or scratched the scrnff of his neck,
You could only tell by waitin'
To see if you bled peck;
And the way he fired, twas lovely!
Nobody knowed which was dead,
Till Big Bin grinned, and the stiffun
Tumbled over onto his head!
At school he killed his master;
Courtin', hekiledseyoH mere;
And the hearse was always waitin'
A little ways from his door.
There wasn't muehyrowth' in the county
As the census returns will show,
But we had Big Bill we was proud OF,
And that was enough to grow.
And now Big Bill is an angel
Damn me, 1t. makes me cry!
Jist when he was rampin the toughest,
The poor fellow had to die.
A thievinr, sneakin' Yankee
Got the start of our blessed Bill,
And there's no one to do our killin',
And nobody left to kill!

Voorhees, received the message, and sent
this back. He was pretty much in the con-

forward on the anxious benches and he was
left blooming alone. At last the minister
saw him and came up.
