THE PINEHURST OUTLOOK
LOYEY MARY HAS A MAN
Didn't Tell Jane and Bridget, Who are
Sometimes Apt to Fidget.
.In. I Jlecauae Ileffan Story, Strang;,
liKiunij; Somewhat CSory Dedi
cated to the Victim.
Lovey M:iry has a Mam,
Likes to meet him if she can,
(Hi the footpath by the bushes, . '
Where the shadows hide the blushes;
When the stars of Love are breathing,
In the dewey, dusky evening;
When the darkness is concealing,
And the atmosphere congealing;
When the hour is past the Midnight,
Speeding on to kiss fond Daylight ;
liut of this knew only Mary,
Kor she is a bit contrary ;
So she told not Jane and Bridget,
Who are sometimes aptto fidget;
And because, began a story,
Strange, uncanny; somewhat gory.
On a recent dewey evening,
When the stars of Love wen; breathing
Mary went for evening walking,
And for fear lest there be talking,
Took along both Jane and Bridget,
Who are sometimes apt to fidget.
She approached the try sting place,
At a sombre, delsarte pace;
Did not tell her maids in waiting
She was simply, going ''dating;'
hid not say that in the bushes,
Where the shadows hide the blushes,
There was waiting her fond lover,
With a heart a' flowing over
For a sight of his dear Mary
.Mary whose a bit contrary.
So when the gay "Mister Brown"
Stepped fourth to claim his own,
There came a strangely frightful jar
Which was felt both near and far;
l or they did not know the meaning,
And set up an awful screaming.
Startled cries rent the air,
From the badly frightened pair,
Who are known as Jane and Bridget,
And are sometimes apt to fidget.
They did not wait for Lovey Mary
To show that she was not contrary,
When she felt her lovers arm,
lut they fled in wild alarm
Madly to the house they Hew,
hid these wildly frightened two ;
Told the strange, uncanny story,
Adding features, somewhat gory ;
Then overcome with frantic grief,
t 'ailed they wildly for relief.
Quickly the alarm was spread,
IVople routed out of bed;
Strange, exciting stories told
Timid hearts grow strong and bold;
i'istols, shot guns, all appear;
Lanterns gleam both far and near;
Fl men are in the cold,
Marching for the robber bold ;
Muttered curses oft' are heard
"Kill the villian !'' is the word
As further spreads the story,
Strange, uncanny, somewhat gory.
Then upon the scene there came
One whose won some local fame,
lie heard the stories with an air
Of one prepared to do and dare ;
Sought out both Jane and Bridget,
Said there was no time to iidget;
Heard the strange, uncanny story,
And the features, somewhat gory;
Gave a look of comprehension,
But did not make further mention;
Took the frightened maidens where
The Lantern's rays did not glare;
Did his best to ally fear ;
Asked some things that none could hear,
Then returned a moment later
Said that Mary was a "dater ;"
Had a fondness for a man,
Likes to meet him if she can,
On the footpath by the bushes,
Where the shadows hide the blushes;
When the stars of Love are breathing,
In the dewey, dusky evening;
When the darkness is concealing,
And the atmosphere congealing;
When the hour is past the Midnight,
Speeding on to kiss fond Daylight;
But of this knew only Mary,
For she is a bit contrary ;
So she told not Jane and Bridget,
Who are sometimes apt to fidget ;
And 'twas thus began the story,
Strange, uncanny; somewhat gory;
Expressed his great appreciation
For the enthusiastic rat'fication;
Sorrow for the false commotion;
Wholly useless, was his notion.
And thus ended was the story ;
Xritwr strange, uncanny, gory!
