Greenbank Village Written in the early 1900's, and carried by the former "Star and Standard" Just on a hill were four roads 'meet, Stands Greenbank village clean and neat; For energy this place is famed, And well deserves the honor gained. Four churches first in order come Whose doors you'll find are closed to none; And then a little to the east, The children's minds may freely feast. But if you turn toward the west, You'll see a place where travelers rest, And should you wish to rest or eat The generous host your wishes meet. But if you wish for boots or shoes A well filled store from which to choose, Stands opposite on the other side; Where you may have your wants supplied. e But if your wants are something more, You'll get a choice at either store, Of two our little village boasts, Besides a place where stops the post. If at neither you wish to stop, But would prefer the saddler's shop, It saddle or harness you require You'll there find something to admire, The blacksmith to I'd wish to mention, Who to your wants will pay attention; And gladly will your horses shoe Or any work that they can do. But if a cottage you require And mean from business to retire, There are building lots that you can buy And all that's needed if you try. A Gristmill too is very near Which now is owned by Mr, Beare; And handsome farms all fit for tillage Lie bodering round this thriving village. --M. REAL.
