INGERSOLL.

James McIntyre

The Thames and tributary rills, Here they do drive numerous mills, Enabling millers to compete To pay high price for oats and wheat.

Here streams do drive many a wheel For to grind both flour and oatmeal, And town will extend its boundaries With its enterprising foundries.

For fine pianos town is famed And highest rank for them is claimed, And brighter days for it yet dawns With its grand mansions and fine lawns,

And it has now the title grand The capital of dairyland.
