Local Song
“Have you heard of the pauper's ball”
Have you heard of the pauper's ball
That was held in Caurn''s school
The committee that gathered there
Like wise Jim Hunt the fool.
There were wevers & brogue makers
Im sure ye know them well.
And bawled head Benson from Mounter [?]
Who acted quite the swell
Sonny ODonnell he was there
With a smig on him like a goat
Saying if you dont treat me well
I know what Ill report
There was butter milk supporters
Summon servers for the crowd
Who assembled there that evening
From the country all around.
