Maine Lumberjacks          183
4     Of Miss Belle Gurnee now I speak,
She is a little queen, She labored hard for the soldiers,
As everyone has seen; And to those noble women,
Who gave their time, its true, May God's blessing follow each one of them
For they are the real true blue.
5     True friends will meet the Livingstons
In their cottages of ease, And the Endicotts whom we welcome here
In their cottage by the sea; And also Ketterlinus
From Philadelphia, he's come down, To meet true friends and neighbors,
In old Bar Harbor town,
6     Its here you'll meet the Harrisons,
In their cottages so fair, And the Morgans whom we welcome here,
To enjoy the summer air; And hundreds of the good old stock,
You '11 meet in grand array To watch the ocean's waves that roll
And while the hour away.
7     Of the Bar Harbor House now I speak
Where the visitors may stay, To pass a week of leisure, And while the hours away;
