8007 Will Carleton 1845-1912 John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:8007
AUTHOR:Will Carleton (1845–1912)
QUOTATION:Fare you well, old house! you’re naught that can feel or see,
But you seem like a human bein’—a dear old friend to me;
And we never will have a better home, if my opinion stands,
Until we commence a-keepin’ house in the house not made with hands.
ATTRIBUTION:Out of the old House, Nancy.
