TO THE FANS
By HOrk.

When the Springtime comes
And the balmy breeze
OF a warm day softly blows:
And Bumble bees hum
In the bloom-blown trees
And the songbird northward goes.
Let us HE us then
To the South Side ground
Where the Peach Tri-Staters play;
With justified pride
Let us join the fans
Marching forth to witness the fray.
Let MS root and root.
Like loyal, good men,
For our team in the field each day
Let us never complain
In a grouchy voice
OF the style Of the WHY'S" play
But let each man
Who loves the sport
And goes the game to see
Take off his hat
To the Wilmington boys
And their leader. CASSIDY.
