WESTERN TELEGRAPHIC UNION.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

1.

A DAINTY youth from Oberlin,

All on a summer's day,

Went out to walk upon the mall,

And met a maiden gay.

2.

The maiden worked a telegraph;

But then, she was so neat

The youth just gave one rapturous look,

And tumbled at her feet.

3.

Her eyes, a perfect battery,

Smiled on him from above,

And through his sinking heart there shot

Electric shocks of love.
