Thread Name: ADD: Face on the Barroom Floor (Monologue)
Subject: RE: Face on the Barroom Floor
Somebody was talking about this poem in another thread. I looked through my Robert W. Service books, and couldn't find it. I finally found the above (an inaccurate version) on the Web, and also in a book called "The Best Loved Poems of the American People." It's certainly written the style of Service. Is this the one you were talking about?
There's a one-act opera with the same name, written in 1978 by Herny Mollicone. There's also a Charlie Chaplin movie with this name.
So, who the heck is H. Antoine D'Arcy?
