then be stirred, Until he meets another Bird. Jas. Cairns 22/11/19

worth and choice. (Ben Jonson) E. Paisley, Ashville, Carnmoney 17th November

disgust on them still. I have been under different Schoolmasters, each one
was as bad as the other and worse. Hugh Graham, Donaghadee 23rd January 1916

anyone want a treasure for life? She's pleasant, good looking, And as neat
as a pin, For further particulars, Apply Within. J. Carmichael

the brain. It gives some pleasure, others pain, And yet it's a thing I can't
explain. I. S. S.? 17 April 1916 Belfast

sweet sounds, Is fit for treasons, stratagems & spoils, Let no such man be
trusted. Ellie Lindsay 27/2/20

For when thy friend becomes thy foe, Then all the world thy secrets know.
May your joys be as deep as the ocean, Your sorrows as light as its foam.
Eva Rodgers, Comber 8th Nov. 1917

dear, They may not meet you in the coming year, Now is the Time. I.
Campbell, Trench House, Lisburn 19/7/17

hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more, It is a tale, told by an
idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. A. ??? 15/6/18

there's many a lad has lost his lass, For the want of sticking to her. J. ??

piece of banana, With a slip and a slide, More stars she espied, Than are

picked up her muff and her wrister, "Did you fall Ma'am," he cried, "Do you
think," she replied, "I sat down for the fun of it, mister?" 38
