The reasons for asking for this
play ground are that the policemen

pleasing to some Of the citizens
around this section of the ward. We
cannot play in the streets as the traf-

There is a small street between
Madison and Jefferson and Fourth and
Fifth streets that we used 10 play on,

We ask the people Of the Third
Ward to please join in and try to get
the playground for us.

And then the captain said You stir

"They then sailed west and stopped to

growled at all the men.
He said, TO keep the balance II

'Tis past bellef-a coral reef they hove up

Ten miles or more were we from shore
when suddenly we stopped,
Then singing songs of rights and wrongs

And begged they would be hurrying,
But with thud that chilled my blood the
anchor then they dropped.
THE idle crew had naught to do and
took to playing cards.
The solemn cook perused book astraddle
of the yards.
The mate, whose name was Hannibal
Talked OF a fearsome cannibal
with whom, II seemed, or else | dreamed,
he had been jolly pards.
