And won financial fame,
Or sat in directors chair.

He chose instead to spend his years
In service poorly paid,
And with the paste pot and the

A humble living made.
He cronicled the towns events;
The local goings-on;
His fellow townsmen's hopes and bents
Inspired his lexicon;
He felt the public pulse that beat
Around him and he tried
To make his little cogntry sheet
A thing of local pride.

He strove but to uplift.

With great ambition filled.
