      Poem to Thom. Justice, by Mrs. Pratt:

      Tom Justice was a wreckman bold
      His noble deeds can ne'vr be told
      If e'er a train rolled off the rails
      Tom Justice came, as hard as nails
      He drenched the trucks with axle grease
      & rolled them back with greatest ease.

      Tom Justice was a Carver great
      A carver he of first class rate
      He'd grasp his knife, so bright & keen
      He'd wear a pennie nice & clean
      He'd gently carve a turkey tough
      With chickens he was never rough.

      Tom Justice was a bridgeman keen
      A player smart as e'er was seen
      He always played as taught by Hoyle
      He ne'r made his partner rage & boil
      But played an honest game & good
      As every honest bridgeman should.

      Then here's a health to good friend Tom
      To his genial wife - she's second to non
      From trusted friends may they ne'er roam
      & long may they live in their cozy home.
      Long be their days, may health be theirs
      Their friends be many throught the years
      & many the joys & few the sorrows
      They share together in long to-morrows.
