Some Georgia Puns.
The “Rustler.” of The Cedartown Standard, is a good one. Hear him:“A carpenter who’d long been blind –
Now on your fancy draw –
While passing through his shop one day,
Reached for a plane and saw.“A ranchman who had been for years
So deaf that song of bird
Pierced not his ears, went out one day
With his sheep dog and herd.“A wagon-maker who was dumb
One day the silence broke;
“Twas not a miracle — he stooped,
Picked up a hub and spoke.“And an enormous elephant –
Largest I ever knew –
Although so heavy, thrust his trunk
Into a grate and flue.”
The Atlanta Constitution (Atlanta, Georgia) Oct 17, 1893
