          Verse transcribed by T. J. Casey, Hut 28:

          'The R.I.C.

          Many lands have slaves and traitors who would sell their race for gold
          Who would lead the greedy wild beast, on the unprotected fold
          But the meanest vilest wretch of all that curse the Earth today
          Is the Irish-born slaveling who would fight in England's pay'
