cain the following as to expectations

Among them the Magnolia Club, the

count I will append the following
lines in explanation.
A story, story to you, Ill tell
That lately happened at Beaver Hill,
Concerning of a noble fox,
That lately harbored about the rocks,
Until Farmer Bradley do declare
Came with his hounds hunting there.
The morning was fair with little fog
Pevnard led off to Cranberry bog
with Speed and Boxer Frixie and Cry
Mount and Jim Loper Grimmer and
Sly,
Made up the Bowers pack that was
on duty.
The chase grew warmer as the NOR
ming went
The pack was increased to some eX-
tent
When Farmer Bradley came in play
With his champion dogs to lead the
way
But of all the hounds I now attest
Thad, Charley and Trixie were the
best.
From place to place away they went
Poor Reynard to save his skin was
bent
His time he saw was drawing nigh,
When he must go in the earth or die
NV time is short and will now state
NV cunning and tricks all emulate.
It now is plain as to my fate
To advise my cubs my will I'll make
To my dear cubs for you die
Rob all the poultry coops far and nigh
And to Farmer Bradley I'll leave my
skin
To make a robe to hang him in.
