Foreword: "The verses that give the title to this little volume record happy days by the shores of St Mary's and the banks of the Yarrow, and nights of song and story under the genial shade of the red lamp at the Gordon Arms. They were not originally intended for publication but were written solely for the diversion of the angling fraternity, who for many years at Easter-time have been wont to meet at the famous 'Wayside Inn.' G.W.T.McG".
