CLASS SONG.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

3

And though we're scattered far apart,

O'er every land and clime,

Firm bonds will e'er bind heart to heart,

Thoughts of the olden time.

Fond mem'ry will to each recall

Sweet friendship's brightening face,

To cheer us onward, lest wo fall,

Faint in life's wearying race.

4

Then farewell comrades, we have long

Conned lessons side by side,

But now must join the busy throng,

And stem life's surging tide.

Whatever fortune has in store,

Whatever may arrive,

We still must cherish evermore,

The class of Seventy-Five.
