- (continued from previous page)We had Barney Stones both nice and fine
he sang the girl i left behind
It brought old memories to his mind
Which he often does recall
Then Paddy nolen very shy, I think between both
you nad I, He only came there for to spy
That night at Handy's BallBut the dance broke up and in the breeze
The boys and girls began to squeeze
when someone shouted that's the cheese
though I could scarcely crawl
I staggered home and down did lie
to have a sleep I then did try
And I swore until the day I'll die
I'd never go to ball(continues on next page)- Informant
