What writing college did attend
Well, attended the college back in

Clerk Newman is often accused Of
being little vain of that fist" of his.
Some say that is the reason why he
uses ink of brilliant purple He
says he uses that kind of ink for no
other reason than that he prefers the
particular shade. No one doubts this.
Anyway, Clerk Newman can claim
