Eloping bootlegger’s daughter faces a humbler fate
Walt Mason satirizes Matilda Beryl Mae, daughter of a rich bootlegger, who elopes with Ste am Slaughter. The poem mocks her lavish lifestyle and imagines a doom of frugal living and debt as she marries a democrat who earns little more than his bread. The verse foresees hardship and social clash as the marriage unfolds.
