Hello! I was wondering if I could read "You are Old Father William" but the one from Alice in Wonderland, not the original.

I think so, but I'd have to check. Do you have a link to it?

Thank you kindly,

Tom - you conveniently uploaded this when we were having undiscovered uploader problems. Now they're discovered, and your file didn't upload.

All that to say, would you please upload it again?

There's no need to claim in this project. Just submit it. Read the first post on how to do that. :)

You'll have to be careful about your source for this poem, though. I find stated that it was published in 1922 and 1923. The 1923 source would be questionable, so you'll have to find a 1922 one.

Thank you, Jeff. This poem isn't PD for me, so I'll need someone else to check it. :)
