CONGRATULATION
------------------------
What a pleasure to us all to extend the hand,
To this happiest couple now in the land,
For some time, I presume, they have been looking ahead,
To this very time when the WORDS should be said;
That time has come, they have completed their plan,
And now Mrs. Closser, you have got a man.
My wishes for the bride are,
Health, happiness and a sleighing snow;
That we married folks may have some place to go.
And to you Mr. Closser,
Health and joy in abundance.
