- (continued from previous page)a red wollen quilt knit for the purpose. Those quilts formed a part of the funeral style. Ladies and gentlemen alike sat on them.
- Have you heard of Duffy's Circus,
It is formed up of late,
Its headed by a general,
Who is out to rule the state.
He called on all the farmers,
Not to pay the rates thats due,
Support their homes and industries,
And to wear a shirt of Blue.
Why Duffy wears this blueshirt,
It's quiet well known to all,
He did'nt like the shift he got,
In Devalera's Dail.
The farmers joined this circus,
To see what they could do,
They called on all the clowns they could,
For to wear a short of Blue.
