Sunday, May 10, 1868 - "Lo! the one drank at the still And the other at the well."

This is a tolerable fine day. Some of the folks are to Church to day. I turned the calfs out of the barn to day. Jim is home to day. A. Liddle was down to Church to day. 

Still they worked in the same field
Toiled on from day to day.
Both had the same hard labor
Both had the same small pay.
But they worked not with one will.
The reason let me tell-
Lo! the one drank at the still
And the other at the well.
