Note: {geni:about_me} The following poem was written by C.H. Snyder as an advertisment in the Rockford, OH newspaper. Know all ye good people,
Surrounding our Rockford town,
If your mower is broke up
Or your binder broke down,
Just bring them to Snyder,
The Hustler Blacksmith Shop man
Where everything is fixed,
So it will never need it again.
It may be a planter,
A disc or a rake,
A waggon or a buggy,
A fifth wheel or a brake,
A tongue or a pole,
A reach or a thill;
THen bring on your work,
You will find a reasonable bill.
If you are wanting new wheels,
Either heavy or light,
At Snyder's repair shop
You will be fitted our right.
We furnish new tops,
Stubs, tires, rubber and steel,
And do any repairs
That can be done on any old wheel.
We sometimes fix castings
That are hard ones to do,
But when they are done
They are as good as new.
Weh you want a job done complete
Just give Snyder a call
Any day in the week.
If in need of a new buggy,
The "Peabody" is the best,
They've been running for years,
And have always stood the test.
Drop in and see Snyder,
Peabody agent, you know,
He has a fine stock
All ready to show.
If on your way in
You notice your horse is a cripple,
Let Snyder shoe him
And he will be tickled.
Then go home rejoicing
And bear it in mind,
That Snyder's general repair shop
Is as good as you will find
On the west side of North Main street
In Rockford, you will see
The Hustler Blacksmith Shop
As plain as can be- That's me.
C.H. Snyder
