The Coming and the Going''
U. s. A. SQUADRON.
Rio de Janeiro January, 1905
In state of expectation,
We await with animation,
The arrival of the Battleships in our Bay ;
For we hesrd the Amiral'ty,
Invited the best quality
Of Uncle Sans Warships to come and
make stay.
Well. at four o'clock on Sunday,
Just four hundred yards asunder,
In single file they crossed the Portal of
the Bay;
And in perfect naval order,
Marched right straight into the Har-
bour,
Saluting all the Forts they passed upon
their way.
Then the guns of Wellegagnon,
Welcomed the Strangers to the Guanabara
Bay;
And the vessels in the Harbour,
Screaming out with all their ardour,
Sang kindly greetings to the Heroes of the
day.
Twas thus they came to visit us,
But now they'er going to leave us,
And take their pretty ships away, so far
away.
Let's hope, then. when taking SQUAD
ings,
That they'll find as nice surroundings.
If not, they will return to Guanabara Bay
