Montague Horatio Mostyn Turtle Pigott: Editors Note (Poem)

Editors Note

A haggard youth with glittering eye
Into our presence sped;
He placed these verses on our desk,
A pistol at our head.
Well, we didn’t much want to be bored with his
lead.

So our readers we bore with his verses instead.

Montague Horatio Mostyn Turtle Pigott
(1865–1927)
