From S.F. Superior Court, filed June 26:
Lovely vs 3taps and G. Kidd (breach of contract, etc)
From George Moses Horton, c.1829 :
Ha, tott’ring Johny, strut and boast,
But think of what your feathers cost;
Your crowing days are short at most,
You bloom but soon to fade;
Surely you could not stand so wide,
If strictly to the bottom tried,
The wind would blow your plume aside
If half your debts were paid.
