60 acre hillside said: (quoted from post at 01:59:55 10/22/13) Older boys and girls played in the HAY LOFT


According to James Whitcomb Riley, a Hoosier poet....Both "Mow"and "Loft" are referenced.



The Old Hay-Mow



The Old Hay-mow's the place to play

Fer boys, when it's a rainy day!

I good-'eal ruther be up there

Than down in town, er anywhere!

When I play in our stable-loft,

The good old hay's so dry an' soft,

An' feels so fine, an' smells so sweet,

I 'most ferget to go an' eat.

An' one time wunst I _did_ ferget

To go 'tel dinner was all et,--

An' they had short-cake--an'--Bud he

Hogged up the piece Ma saved fer me!

Nen I won't let him play no more

In our hay-mow where I keep store

An' got hen-eggs to sell,--an' shoo

The cackle-un old hen out, too!

An' nen, when Aunty she was here

A-visitun from Rensselaer,

An' bringed my little cousin,--_he_

Can come up there an' play with me.

But, after while--when Bud he bets

'At I can't turn no summersetts,--

I let him come up, ef he can

Ac' ha'f-way like a gentleman!

James Whitcomb Riley
