  1. (continued from previous page)
    following rhyme was composed about him.
    Jim Davis the neagar the miserly crathur
    He starved us beyond at his house
    He gave us heated Indian meal for our supper.
    The he bought for three farthings a pound
    We asked his honor was there
    Any larger pot in the town
    Or wasn't there lots of spring water
    Running from Alison's down.
