Now gentle Miss Conkling, of rustic renown,

Has kindly consented to honor the town

And favor our meetings, in spite of the trains,

And cheer us and charm us with musical strains.

The next new delight we wish to impart

Will be in the person of Johnny B. Hart;

So modest in manner, so earnest in mind,

Has piety, talent, good nature combined.

By the way, he will lecture on the 10th of this May

Concerning Victoria’s blest reign of to-day;
