Jabed Meeker (Humorist)

Twain? Oh, yes, I've heard Mark Twain
Heard him down to Pleasant Plain;
Funny? Yes, I guess so. Folks
Seemed to laugh loud at his jokes!
Laughed to beat the band; but I
Couldn't rightly make out why.
Guess his humor ain't refined.
Quite enough to suit my mind.
Mark's all right'right clever speaker'
But he can't touch Jabed Meeker;
And one thing that makes it queer
Is that Jabed lives right here.
