Ton poor to possess the precious ore, And too mucli a stranire.- lo ti rrow, We issue to day our "promise to pay," And hope to redeem on the mnrrow. Days rutleiC bv.and weeks boesnie yoara, Hut our enftars wero empty still, Coin was an rare that the treasurer quaked If a dollar ahould drop in tlie till. But the faith that was in us was strong indeed. And our poverty well we discerned. And these little checks represented the psy 't hat our nattering veterans earned. We knew il bad hardly a value in gold, But as if old the soldier received II, It gszod In our eves with a promise to pay And each patriot soldier beleived it. But our boys thought Hi lies of pr'p e or psy Or of bills that were over due, Wi knew II it bought our broad today, Twea the moat that our country eoulddn. Keep it ! il lolls all our hi-tory o'er, From the birth of the dream to the las', Modest and born ol t .e Angel Hope, Like our hope of success it passed. ----- " - - luic cold rpui,L -f rout, lcit and Sno in tub Nortr Tub Fruits and Vkoktaolkb Uuiit.
