Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ... ME AN' PAP AN' MOTHER When I was a little tike I set at th' table 'Tween my mother an' my pap; Eat all I was able. Pap he fed me on one side, Mammy on th' other. Tell ye we was chums, them days--Me an' pap an' mother. Sundays, we'd take great, long walks Through th' woods an' pasters; Pap he al'ays packed a cane, Mother'n me picked asters. Sometimes they's a sister 'long, Sometimes they's a brother; But they al'ays was us three--Me an' pap an' mother. Pap he didn't gabble much; Hel' his head down, thinkin'. Didn't seem t' hear us talk, Nor th' cow-bells clinkin'. Love-streaks all 'peared worried out 'Bout one thing er nuther; Didn't al'ays understand pap--That's me an' mother. I got big an' went away; Left th' farm behind me. Thinkin' o' that partin' yit Seems t' choke an' blind me. 'Course I'd be all safe an' good With m' married brother, But we had to part, us three--Me an' pap an' mother. Hurried back, one day; found pap Changed, an' pale an' holler; Seen right off he'd have to' go--Where we couldn't foller. Lovin' streaks all showed up then--Ah, we loved each other! Talked fast, jest t' keep back tears--Me an' pap an' mother. Pap he's--dead; but mother ain't; Soon will be, I reckon; Claims already she can see Pap's forefinger beckon. Life hain't long, I'll go myself One these days eruther, Then we'll have good times agin, Me an' pap an' mother. Puttier hills we'll have t' climb, Saunterin' 'long old fashion, Hear th' wild birds singin' 'round; See th' river splashin'--If God 'd only let us three Be 'lone, like we'd rather, Heaven'd be a great ol' place For me an' pap an' mother. MODERN MEDICINE I went to a modern doctor to learn what it was was wrong. I'd lately been off my fodder, and life was no more a song. He felt of my pulse as they all...
