LAUGHING, lucky Four-Leafed Clover
Is a most atrocious rover;
Doesn’t stay long in one place,
Goes and never leaves a trace.
Marion T. Ross (1881-1937)

The nursery rhyme, Mary Had a Little Lamb was a true story. In 1815, nine-year-old Mary Sawyer had a little lamb that followed her to the one-room schoolhouse, Redstone.
Fellow student, John Roulstone, wrote the famous poem about the event for Mary.

Birds were singing and in the dark forest was a well with a curiously wrought drinking-horn.
