The Homesteaders' Reunion, you say
Is to be the 21st day?
Tho they almost revere
A brave Montana pioneer.
The Laynes do regret
That you cannot be met
BY them on that auspices day,
For Montana is too far away.
But here's health to you all,
Bountiful crops for this fall
And an oil gusher, too,
May fate rush 'er thru
To Montana's brave crew,
Is their wish; now adieu."
