Reminiscence of the late wary
"Say, papa dear" asked little Ned.
As he climbed COMPLETE his knee,
why only one arm have you
To caress and play with metz
And his bright eyes looked FIRST wonderlngly
why it is cannot see."
'Near Ned, the one-armed man replied,
With a kiss and sad sad smile,
Twas long ago when that bloody war
Made homes sad, my child
When brave boys fell, when our country
Was with civil war defed."
LAST the night of the battle of Fair Oaks,
of Sixty-two the first of June,
Your papa lost his arm, my boy;
Twas midnight and full moon"
