MISTER JOHN COLLINS (Mine Host, Gladstone Hotel, Dunedin.) Dour Dunedin would lose its frown, If more like John were in the town, For he's a lad with a way that's rare; A perfect v/onder at banishing care, Like his beer and his wine, His'"spirits" are fine, And he always treats you fair, On the square! (NZ Truth, 15 February 1919)
