Notes
Content: Cover design includes photograph intended to portray song: a mother points accusingly at a man, while her daughter looks down in despair.
Content: On cover: Sung and illustrated with great success by Miss Ada Jones.
Content: Summary: On a crowded street a mother encounters her daughter and son-in-law; the son-in-law suggests the problem is the daughter's fault, but the mother reproves the son-in-law by asking whether he has the right to judge, since he led her astray; the son-in-law then asks the mother for forgiveness, acknowledging that the problem was his fault; the mother refuses a reconciliation, saying the son-in-law has broken every promise.
Statement of responsibility: words and music by Chas. E. Baer.
