    Description

    Oliver Gilmore Keown, LL.B.

    Hartford, Kentucky

    We do not see much of Keown where squirrels are common fed,

    But he helped win a war in Europe where squirrels dared not tread.

    For six long years he’s been a victim of wedlock’s holy ties,

    But, withal, he’s a promising lawyer, and we expect to see him rise.
