The

Groton Avery Clan

Vol.1.

     There's no title half so fine,

             As the simple "Kin O' mine,"

     Doctor, General, Duke, or Sir,

          Never make my pulses stir.

     Prince or Lord, Earl of King,

          Somehow doesn't mean a thing,

      But my eyes begin to shine,

          At the title "Kin O' Mine."
