DRAFTED.

A Memorial Day Poem, Illustrated with Moving Tableaux.


Arranged by the Author of “Preston Papers.”


I.

What? Drafted? My Harry! Why man, ’t is a boy at his books,

No taller, I’m sure, than your Annie; as delicate, too, in his looks.

Why it seems but a day since he helped me, girl-like, in my kitchen, at tasks.
