• "KID PEDRO"
Pedrop the soldier,(may his pay increase)
Awoke one night from a deep dream of peace,
And saw within the moonlight in his room,
liaking it rich, like old King Tufa tomb,
A grey ghost, writing in a book of gold;
Exceeding "brew" had made Kid Pedro bold
And to the presence in the room he said,
"vi/hat cha writ in' ?" The vision raised its head,
And with a mean lock in it* s ghostly eye,
nnswered, "The names of those who leave next July*11
‘hmd is mine one?" 3aid Pedro^^hlay, not so*”
Replied the grey ghost. Pedro^spoke more low,
More cheerfully still and said, "X thank thee, bo;
But me down as being a sougdough."
The grey ghost wrote and vanished. The next night
It came again, and with an electric light
Showed the names of those ordered to depart an
And lo • "Kid" Pedro was the first to start.
