Well, "to resoom" the Union Hall was filled, about 175 present I believe was estimated, and after the usual chit-chat had passed round we had some singing and some declarations and recitations, and then it came to pass that the President Mrs Heywood arose and said she "was very happy to announce then, an Original Poem, from Miss Reed. Whereupon Miss Reed swallowed, and felt some as she did when called upon to "ask a blessing" at Mrs. Gleason's breakfast-table. But with 175 pairs of eyes upon one, it is necessary to make a move in some direction. So I thought "Lor! what's the use"! and marched out and posted myself against an end of the Melodeon, and commenced my document, and went on, with it, and continued to the end of it, a hundred and four lines.
