In addition to this immense issue, a very large
quantity OF counterfeit bills have been discover

Twas as if O snapping turtle spoke.

And LETT it white where there they found it brown

And be sure that you cover we'll my tracks!
So together adown the street they went
Cold blooded villains on mischief bent;

And MIR. Price, in the morning light.
Beholding the ground all covered with white,

As his father had been from the self same blow.
And the two conspirators laughed with glee,
And shook rare buds from the mape-tree
As II 'twere a Jolly sight to see,
For little cared they Tor smile or frown,
As they went with Zero into the town,
And brought the Prices suddenly down.
