Discovery Of America.

Original.
This land was oncs discovered
BY a brave and noble man. .
1t was then all covered
By O very savage band.
His name, you all know,
Is Christopher Columbus;
He had to, sail slow, 81
And his Grew became mutinous.
He tried again ana again II
A few ships to get, f ,s
Until he reached Spain, @slt
Where crow he met
1t was on the twelfth OF October.
4 That they first sighted land,
And the band could not have felt noblef
AS they stepped upon the sand
When he went back again,
He was welcomed gladly.
But very soon Spain
Made him feel very. sadly.

with piece OF straw IN his mouth and
tho other had small feather In ats

still sat and wondered how smart they
were TO build their own homes.

of progress which is so strongly i'm
pressed upon other sections of the
state.
