Come All Ye Wild Young Cundle Lads (1900)
TIN KETTLING.The Cundletown correspondent of the M. R. Times in a recent letter attempts to bring the :"low scamps"
who indulge in this practise into line with the Churches, Good Templars, and Bands of Hope. These
institution's are legal, tinkettlers are law breakers; and any writer in defending them, may be said
"To strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel." Come all ye wild young Cundle lads,
Who love a jolly lark,
Bring out your cans, and old tin-pans
And play the Wedding March. With Churches and Good Templars,
You cow are brought in line,
And while the Cuckoo writes,
You'll have a jolly time. In days to come, at one big match,
You'll feast on cake and wine,
While "Cuckoo" from the horse bazaar
Shouts "This is very fine." Notes
