KNOWN AND LOVED BY MANY GENERATIONS OF UNION COLLEGE STUDENTS AS “BILLY WELLS,” THIS LITTLE VOLUME IS AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED

“ Alas! they had been friends in youth; But whispering tongues can poison truth; And constancy lives in realms above; And life is thorny and youth is vain; And to be wroth with one we love Doth work like madness in the brain. ”
