The original owner had lovely old-timey handwriting:
But at some point, a kid got hold of it! They tried to copy the original handwriting and drew boats:
And also wrote disturbing rhymes:
'Old Paddy Usmond is no good
Chop her up for firewood
If she is no good for that
Give her to the ugly cat'
I looked it up, it turns out there's different variations of this old nursery rhyme floating about - but they're all creepy! They just don't write children's rhymes like they used to eh?!
Wow interesting and spooky
