Because he couldn't swim.
And there was not n man below
To throw n line to him.
lie called aloud: "say, fellers, say.
Must | go down alone?p
Then came those hooking words from
Quay;
I've troubles of my own"
Speak, fellers," once again he cried;
"WiiI no one sink with me?"
The people, as one man, replied:
go call on Tammany!"
The wild wind took away his breath,
And tossed his rumpled hair;
TO stay he knew was certain DEATH,
His warning had been fair.
Then yet again his voice he found.
.''Oh, Garrison, where is he?
win no one stay here and be drowned
VIII no one bolt with me?"
The waves rolled DER the ancient raft
And tossed its stern on high;
Yet Platt stuck to the crealrng craft
Determined there to die!
There came q boom like thunder sound
And Platt-Oh, where was he?
Ask of the winds that strewed the
ground
With parts of Saint Loo-ee!
Cleveland Leader.
