GUEST,John from "Elsie`sBand" Review: Peter Jackson They shall not grow old (26) RE: Review: Peter Jackson They shall not grow old 16 Nov 18

Following is the last verse of our "Pompalary Jig" gleaned from Ray Driscoll many moons ago.The song itself refers to the campaign against Napoleon Bonaparte.

"And how did they serve the veterans who did the daring deeds?
Why, they published us a Vagrancy Act to furnish all our needs.
They passed by Act of Parliament with the Tories and the Whigs,
And they left us all with nothing but our Pompalary Jigs."
