The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1881-05-07
A Neighbor of Pollie's.

we nave KNOW ii Ollie all our lives
and never vet found her the belle she rep
resented herself as being. True, as she
says. most OF the beaux in this section
are Democrats. but not all ni he Crothcrs
family faction. We will tell you some
facts concerning Polite simaginary beauX.
We think she WAS dreaming Of the happy
days of the past q hen she saw six bug
Lies at the door ON the evening of the
Rowlandsville entertainment, for Nose
and john T.. having long ago drawn
blanks from the matrimonial lottery. are
content to settle down to their cider and
politics. ami trouble not the fair GamSel.
unless III her dreams. which indeed il
must have been when John +. spent the
week. for we have not seen him there.
Polite took care to tell the tailings of
only Il few beauX. Some that are dear
to her heart she fail d to mention: for
instance. her sweet cousin from the Sth
district, who So often poliShes at other s
expense. and calls every evening and
bangs and thumps our piano until we
trenible in our shoes for its safety.
Then Ransom Random (the long pill
peddlcr's would be-god) does he cali only
before tea? Alas. he often makes 1t 4
point to call three times day. Just be
fore each meal. wash or scrub day II
matters not to him. Why not tell of
HIM. Polite: ii he amt a cusscd eat,
where do you find them?
We think she was best with a double
vision when She saw the wi'inwer by her
side to and from the entertainment. for
We know he has turned his sweet smiles
toward peaceful penmsf iyania. We saw
Polite at The. entertainment and She look
, cd as ii >i>. had ruw,icr"d iur s;N hcallA:
hut not one was in atIrndin"c As We
! could see. Think she heel and toed
! II there aud home: not a$ she represented
! Il. Now Polite did net forget that " Hey
| was married. tior She had ;!s many Its on
his wrddiu. day aS Il cat has lives. The
lung pill peddler from the Sth district
! has too OFT discussed the subje of love,
and seen thu folly thereof, to talk about
! he affair with Polite. No doubt it would
be very pleasing To her for him to do so.
lur many are the traps set for him, baited
! by Politics smiles: but in vain. The
| best laid plauS of mice and men gang
/ after gee. Alas. for Polite, her plans
.amg after men: hnt my sweet friend,
! keep i'll mind. Time and tide wait for
/ no man." Cor woman While yuu are
str,Iin- ,onr l,nom, and soon. Tk, John
