Happy Birthday!

Prime Minister, Bill Gladstone

was born 12/29/1809
(d1898)

          Great distress was in the west,
          Disraeli got a dreadful scare,
          The land of Connaught, depend upon it,
          It was near to be civil war;
          Gladstone now will quell the row
          And I hope next year there will be no need;
          Believe me now, it's true you'll find
          You'll see a row about the seed.
