We all hed come ter Bill's ter spend the day, / New Year's it was, an' Bill hed shaved, an iled / 'Is hair, an' greased 'is boots, an' looked ez gay / 'Z a feller kin in clo'es thet ain't be'n siled.
"I reck'n I didn't tell ye 'bout this fowl," / He sez, an' stopped 'is carvin' fer a bit, / While Laury looked ez if she's goin' ter scowl, / An' tried by signs ter steer 'im off of it.
