Timothy Tippens drove a cart
To a market up the town, oh!
He carried a lot of turnip tops,
And sold for half a crown, oh!
His waistcoat was red and so was his head,
But his little coat was brown, oh!
2
Timothy Tippens's horse was blind,
Because he couldn't see, oh!
He'd two legs in front, and two behind;
And that's one more than three, oh!
Though if two be be-four, and behind two more,
It looks very like six to me, oh!
3
Timothy Tippens's horse he died,
And Tim cried, "Gee," and "Woe," oh!
And sold his cart to his neighbor Jack,
Because it wouldn't go, oh!
Without a horse: and you know, of course,
It was likely it should be so, oh!

Transcriber's Notes:
Obvious punctuation errors repaired.
Page 96, the final line of the second verse was not indented in the
original text.
This issue was part of an omnibus. The original text for this issue did
not include a title page or table of contents. This was taken from the
January issue with the "No." added. The original table of contents
covered the entire year of 1873. The remaining text of the table of
contents can be found in the rest of the year's issues.
