BILLY AND I. ^ C (Hy special request of one of our best friends wo republish this poem). ( They say they are going to shoot you, Old Hilly, but don't you fret, ^ For the fellow who dares to meddle with you must reckon with me, you bet; You're a poor old horse, Old Billy, and von aren't worth much, it is true; Hut you've been a faithful friend to nie, :unl I'll see you safely through. "" Shoot Old Hilly? T guess not, though you may be old and gray; Hv ill*' self-same stretch of mercy I they'll he shooting at me some day; I For I'm three limes older than you " are, for I've reached three score iiiul ten; And shooting isn't the thing to do to horses no more than men. Thai's rijrht. Old Hilly, 1 like il ? your muzzle against my face; V We've had rattlinu: times together, and once we won the race? |)<> you remember il. Hilly, the dude I hat we downed I hat day? And I he way he -swore, that an old farm-horse should show his trotter i!,e way! 1 haven't muc h love for the fellows i who t'<>ll?>\\ the shuotiu'- plan: I!' they had more pity for horses and ' il??^s, I hey M have in<>re love for man: And 1'ii- world would be much nearer l he ala I inilleiiniuni day P 11' they'd ju-t stop buruinu powder f for u'o >d and lire their guns awav. K Well. Hiliy, we're both ureal sinners, C for we've both grown old, you ( know ; And we've only a little further adown 1 the road to ?o; * S. we'll fare a I o i to-.;elhor till the *" M.i>ter ial!> ;i- home E To ihe happy Home-Land sinbles, and our feet forget to roam. ^ e<, we ve jogged alonu together for many and many a day, S S,. we'll .jusi keep on a-.jojrginj; to the n endinii of the way; f And at last, when I he shadows falling C I >hall tell ihe time for rest, ^ i We will meet them, nothing fearing, f' for voit know we've done our best. " 1 Won't it be jolly, Old Comrade, in h the pastures green and fair, To roll in the fragrant clover that r must bloom forever there1? e You'll be there, Hilly, 1 know it, for they'll surely let you in? I only wish my record on earth was a .T quarter as free from sin. A They tell us that horses have no M souls, and they all declare it true; ? That shows how little they know, Old | Hoy, and it proves they don't know you; P Well, well, 'tis a mighty question, and quite beyond my ken? Hut the more 1 know of horses like you, the less 1 brag about men. s Xow, trot away to the pasture and ? I hear the thrushes sine:; ',] And list to the children playing, and ?< hear how their voices ring; s See the white clouds drifting over, ^ hear the cooling brooklet's flow? * "I'is sweet, glad world, Old Hilly, and we'll stay till we have to go. i Shoot Old Hilly! By ginger! they ( better not try that on; For the man who draws a gun on j you will wish he'd never been born; / They say it will cost to keep you! all j right, you have earned it fair; So don't you worry, old friend of j mine, you shall have your honest j share. You've been a good horse, Old Pel- , low, steady and brave and true; Yon have given us faithful service? ' ( done all that ahorse could o; . You have earned your keep; you > shall have it ; so live as long as you ; can? For justice is justice, and right is i ri?hl, whether its horse or man. > J. S. Cutler, In Boston Evening Transcript.
