A parody on "Who will care for mother now" by Eugene T. Johnston. [n. p.] [n. d.], with this note: Amongst the many heroic fellows who drew a prize in the U. S. lottery, was a distinguished Frenchman,--from Limerick, the only support of himself. On being told by the Surgeon he would "Pass," he placed his hand on his empty stomach and, while a big tear of bravery rolled down his cheek, exclaimed in accents that would have touched the heart of a wheelbarrow: "Who will care for Micky now?" |

Thes undated entries in Levy and American Memory bug me. I wish they could at least give us a time frame, if not the exact date of publication. -Joe Offer- |
