Verse and Worse By Jay A Gee
A humorous fragment mentions Christmas time winding down and invites suggestions about excuses for not wearing gifts. It references Bert Farrier the blacksmith near the canal, Johnnie, Luther, Sherlocke, and a joked steady stream of half-formed anecdotes. The note ends with Switchmen announcing a ball January 1 at Adams hall with Boyne's orchestra.
