I TO the members of the party who camped
on the premises of E. A. Corey, near Barnard
Wharf, this Jingle is respectfully dedicated
THE CAMP ON ssCOREY,S HILL,
To the sandy shores of Chesapeake Bay,
During the month of August dry;
Came merry party for two-weeks' stay,
And their health to improve did try.
This party numbered just seventeen,
Qncluding the cook and little Jean)
And a more merrier one, ween,
Around those parts had never been seen.
Twelve came from the diamond State''
above,
And one from little Rhode Island;
Three from the city of Brotherly Love,
And one from bright old Maryland,
The Lofiand girls represented three,
Zach pride to the family tree);
Then Mr.. John Jones, right full of glee,
And Vlnie Lynch so happily free.
The McWhorter family numbered four,-
Thomas, Viola, father and mother,
With Mrs. Haddaway, Ia McWhorter before)
And Jean, their help, they are all together.
Purnell aud John Davis, full of life,
M. Fitzpatrick and his merry wife;
The cook with her awfnl butcher knife,
With the author,-made merriment rife,
The days were spent in boating and fishing;
The evenings with game and song,
And the thought of the trip keeps one
wishing
Itcould be repeated ere long.
Who e'er shall forget that one great day
We were to go sailing on the baya
Some on the boat would not step nor stay,
(Some wished they had d'nt when under wav)
Seven strong we right early started out,
But alas! waves will roll and swayl
And very soon we had to put about
And only six re-sailed away.
The waves still rolled! Alack! Alacki
And they fiercely did our small boat whack, !,
Until two more wished they were back,
Which left but four in the fishing smack.
To tell all that happened on this short trip,
And the pleasures that were enjoyed,
Would take pen that would forever drip
And more men than are employed.
Then here's to our merry party, truel
And here's to Chesapeake's waters, blue +!
Here's to the days thatso quickly few,
Making us all happy crew!
Long life be there then to one and to all !
May each life shine bright as a lamp!
Thus, the curtain or the Future Will fall
Der the III. B. Club's'' merry camp
