CRAFTSMEN"
At the request of several of the at
torneys present the following poem
read at the supper by Mr.. T. Brown, is
| published:
Mankind are all craftsmen, say unto
In trade and profession the statement is
|
Seeking cash and position, glory. honor
We travel llfc's road, oft the prize we
don't gain.
In these new times.
The clergy in craft will tell you beware.
And seek for salvation with sorrow and
prayer;
Toward lions gold mountain, ask aims
from your hands.
Now the modern route to the new
promised land,
In these new times.
The doctors are craftsmen quite sleek
| in their line,
Who treat all diseases prevailing in
cline;
BY nostrums, by prayer. by laying on
hands,
BY water (the besp it makes clean
| man;
In these new times.
When patients have passed through
sections care,
In probate their bills astonish heirs;
They say. Saving life" makes expenses
| quite great,
And coolly scoop in their share of es-
tate,
In these new times.
The dealers in liquors. what think you
Of them?
