One of our young friends who sadly
misses his aflianced since the vacation
of the Opelousas Female Institute COM
menced, is said to thus express him
sci on his forlorn aud reckless condition
since her departure:
/ am lonely since my "dony" left,
For sixty days vacation,
can neither eat, nor sleep, nor rest,
Where all seems desolation.
The only thing for me to do,
While in my desperation,
lis to get o ticket straight on through
BY the accommodation.
And il cannot raise stake,
I'll get uD on the tender;
Or under a box car will take
The brake both short and slender.
1t matters not to me, you know,
How get to New Iberia
Inside the coach or under it's floor
First-class or quito inferior.
I'll teach her sun burnt, silly beau.
That calling latter tea,"
Is not the way to stand show
With "sooner" from st. Landry
