Brewery Truck

Engraving: Harper's Weekly

Children watch while the brewery truckman siphons out his brew for sale by the bucket. The customer on the right is going off with his bucketful.

"Father, Dear Father, Come Home With Me Now" was a popular ballad describing the plight of a child entreating his drunken father to return home.
