"Tis said sometimes he blurted out A sulphurous oath or two, And often bold, great stories told, But not a thing untrue. : Conveniences of modern days Were all to him unknown ; He would not try to tell a lie, Nor could he telephone.

Perhaps if these inventions great Had been to him supplied ‘Twould had direct the same effect— Like us he would have lied. Some modern folks don't hesitate To lie as well as pray; And often then they lie again— George was not built that way. “Tis best that we achieve for truth Great notoriety, ‘Than take first prize for all the lies Told in society. Great soldier, patriot, lieless man! ‘We laud and honor thee. ‘Thy victories won were all outdone By thy veracity. . oe JON H, KINGSBURY. Tum, mexstarp—"* Come in !
