The Last Resort

Title:     The Last Resort
Author: Halpin [More Titles by Halpin]

A dramatist declared he had got
So many people in his plot,
That what to do with half he had
Was like to drive him drama-mad!
"The hero and the heroine
Of course are married--very fine!
But with the others, what to do
Is more than I can tell--can you?"
His friend replied--"'Tis hard to say,
But yet I think there is a way.
The married couple, thank their stars
And half the 'others' take the cars,
The other half you put on board
An Erie steamboat--take my word,
They'll never trouble you again!"
The dramatist resumed his pen.

-THE END-
