Description:Excerpt from Yankee Notions At The Vendue With lungs of brass the auctioneerIntoned his ritual o'er and o'er: "What am I offered? Do I hearThree dollars? Good! Who'll make it four?" Cajoled by his official smirk, Bombarded by his heavy wit, The crowd bought things that would not workAnd other things that did not fit. Across the scene a woman strode, Complacent, voluble, and spare;A hat designed in misses' modeSat coyly on her thin gray hair. Into the bidding straight she leaped, As one who battles with her peers.Until there lay about her heapedThe rubbish of a hundred years. I heard a grudging neighbor say: "Poor thing! She never had a chanceTo spend like she's done here to-day.Until her boy was killed in France. "She's got th' insurance money now, An' she an' Lil will spread some, won't they?When all is said an' done. I vowSome folks do strike it lucky, don't they?"
