There be two men of all mankind
That should like to know about;
But search and question as will

Melchizedek he praised the Lord
And gave some wine to Abraham;
But who can tell what else he did
Must be more learne1 than am.
Ucalegon he lost his house
When Agamennon came to Troy;
But who can tell me who he was
I'll pray the gods to give him Joy.
There be two men from Al mankind
That I'm forever thinking on:
They chase me everywhere | go

II was through the solicitation of
Mrs Eugene DUPONT Miss Ethel Tall
man and Miss A. T. Flynn. who heard
him when he gave a recital at Aeolian

Additional interest is manifested in

city. in 1907. The audience wRs made
I'D largely of society folk and musi-
clans, who carefully followed the per-
former through the difficult numbers
