Old Chief.

Young men, in my day, courted war’s cutting claws,

Nor wasted their time making love to the squaws;

Such fooling as that in those days did not go—

Owosco.

Yes, yes; but that happened a long time ago.

All.

What wonders the men were a long time ago,

How thankful we are that it now isn’t so!

Every day for amusement a-killing they’d go,
