Newell, Peter, 1862-1924 · New York : Harper & Brothers · leaf 38
A German band was on parade, And all the district knew it,When—boom! the bass-drum sounded out— The shot had gone clean through it! i The leader turned about in ire, And pointing at the drummer,Exclaimed: ** You sthart too soon, my friendt- You make a better plumber! … Mis Silverman had built a fire And shovelled on some coal,When through the stove-pipe crashed the shot And made a gaping hole! ct The smoke in murky columns rose, The lady raised a shout;Then on the scene the tiremen came, And put the lady out!
