The Wedding Prelude.

Little Boy—“ Say, mi, says you are going to take sister off. ” Engaged Youth (soon to be married) —“Yes, in a few weeks she’s going to my home, and my ma and pa will be her ma and pa. See?” “I See. Then she’ll be your sister, same as she wis mine. Say, don’t you do anything she doesn’t like, for if you do she’ll bang you around awful when your ma and pa ain’t looking,”—New Yoric Weekly.
