Sure! I've been posting a new set of nautical poems to the Edwin J. Brady thread here at Mudcat and here's a link to "Sally Brown": click here for poem
It's really a shame that we can't talk with Brady but he really was a good observer of sailors and stevedores in and around the docks at Sydney and Melbourne in the late 1890's and early 1900's.
