THE VILLAGE PEST.

Old Rod skibbs was the village pest
And the thing he liked I'd do the best
Was to set all day in the grucry store
And to spin yarns we'd all heard be-
fore.
He had Joe Miller's book down fine
He could speak 1t through, yes, every
line. MAX
He'd spring some old chestnut and
then
He'd cackle like barnyard hen,
And then he'd set and wait awhile
And when no one would crack q smile
Old Rod would git Just firm mad
And tell Ave Others Just as bad, ~ "
