- A man named Joe Sutton who lived in the Moor was an expert at poetry making. He was waiting for a man to bring him in to a pub for a drink. After a while the man came and his name was Mr. Ross. He said he would bring Joe in if he would make him a poem.
This is the poem he made :-
There goes Mr Ross
With his mackintosh
Its no great loss
But a terrible pity
That they did not call him
After London or Dublin
Or some big city.- Collector
