Irish Ballad Drawn by Fec Murray. Verse by But Titcoms. “Snoppy McQuop” OH listen ye spalpeens from Erin Go Bragh, Shillalees and dudheens (whatever they are); Know there’s none but the Irish is real Snoppyquops, And the back of me hand to all dagos and wops.

Henry, in “More Limehouse Nights,” perhaps, to a greater extent than at first, because now the glamor is less apparent, and the method more so. For the O.
