The Frankfort roundabout. [volume] (Frankfort, Ky.) 1882-1908, 1899-06-03
Chicken Coop.

Good morning, readers, 1t has been
quite awhile since you heard from
me, so hope you will appreciate
my letter. In fact l haven't written
since I've been in the coop. Its a
very small place, you know, and l
scarcely ever hear any news, but l
pOked my head out the other day
and heard what mistake Tube Rose
had made in saying that there was
musical at Mr.. w. G. Bryant's. 1t
must have been a mistake, indeed, as
the musicians know nothing about 1t.
So next time inquire around before
you write, and let us have the real
facts about the matter.
Jack and Jill, come to see us every
week. am very much interested
in your letters. They can't be beat.
/ should like to hear something from
the Lily of the Valley and Lily of
the Pike. Are you on good terms or
broken your friendship forever?

Mr.. Lee Harrod has purchased

look out, some of you Dry Ridge Wis
itOrs will get left.
Rumor reports another wedding in
the near future and this time, oh!
lawsy, they say its me. Well, you
may not think it, but / hope the re-
port isn't false, for old bachelors
have hard time living all alone.
Wish you would come rou nd up to
see me. l live over here on the
hillside of a nice level bottom and
everything Is just as pretty and
green, just like some folks are that
never ''seed uothin." Come some
pretty sunshiny day, when its rain
ing right hard. Pm lonesome when
its SO hot. Pm afraid to get out,
might freeze and die. Well, Pm
lonesome to-day. Lust feel like cry
ing, and / did cry too. l could a |
went some whar, but / had to lend
my sis some o. my clothes, and my
others, they's patched all to pieces,
so Pm shamed to go nowhar with
them on. Ny sister, she's bigger Zen
me, but she's hitler, 1 mean she
amt as old as me. You can't I'M
derstand, l reckon, very good, and
I'll have to write all day to git we to
understand nothin'. So l amt got
graderated yit and can't think some
more to write, but maybe l learn
some more items arter while, so hope
you'll excuse me cause | been study
ing hard to learn what know.
We want you to understand that
we are for the reelection of honest
Did Dan as County Judge. Who
will dare to run against him? Who
ever he may be will be showed under
never to resurrect.
He is not skilled in legal love
But has heart for the needy poor.
Tom THUMB.
