The lady fancied Abram gave her friend the icy mit ; The friend he did not seem to care for that a single bit. And when the thing was over and the smoke had cleared away, Abram, with that razor in his hand, was heard to say: Abram Jackson Smith he would play poker with the rest, Abram was a foxy man, and play'd close to his chest ; He saw he had three aces, as he slily took a peek, Said Abram, \"This is where I wins my chicken for a week.\" A certain party raised the pot, and Abram raised back ; They kept on raising back and forth, and used up e'vry stack. The evening ended sudden, when they cleared away the wreck, Abram had his 'nitials on the other fellow's neck. CHORUS Never raise a razor 'less you want to raise a row! Raisin' razors aint no work for quiet folks, no-how It's apt to bring the clammy perspiration to the brow! So never raise a razor, 'less you want to raise a row!"}],"description":"Never raise a razor 'less you want to raise a row","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b71f44ae-d0d3-49e7-b807-b0c17f26f317/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"fa-spnc-sco_d7636_3494_01","height":1791,"width":1390,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b4409c71-7b18-4118-a137-1da30b34785c/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b4409c71-7b18-4118-a137-1da30b34785c","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":512,"scaleFactors":[1,2,4]}]},"height":1791,"width":1390},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b71f44ae-d0d3-49e7-b807-b0c17f26f317/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b4409c71-7b18-4118-a137-1da30b34785c/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}},{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b71f44ae-d0d3-49e7-b807-b0c17f26f317/canvas/_2","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"fa-spnc-sco_d7636_3494_02","height":1791,"width":1390,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/9dd128bd-cdaa-4d00-92bf-1e1aac4d64c6/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/9dd128bd-cdaa-4d00-92bf-1e1aac4d64c6","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"},"height":1791,"width":1390},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b71f44ae-d0d3-49e7-b807-b0c17f26f317/canvas/_2","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/9dd128bd-cdaa-4d00-92bf-1e1aac4d64c6/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}},{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b71f44ae-d0d3-49e7-b807-b0c17f26f317/canvas/_3","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"fa-spnc-sco_d7636_3494_03","height":1791,"width":1390,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/6220b722-6c11-4ac7-b251-7aae9152feeb/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/6220b722-6c11-4ac7-b251-7aae9152feeb","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"},"height":1791,"width":1390},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b71f44ae-d0d3-49e7-b807-b0c17f26f317/canvas/_3","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/6220b722-6c11-4ac7-b251-7aae9152feeb/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}},{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b71f44ae-d0d3-49e7-b807-b0c17f26f317/canvas/_4","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"fa-spnc-sco_d7636_3494_04","height":1791,"width":1390,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/08f5d4a2-c755-4e1a-bf8d-68f3cda7062f/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/08f5d4a2-c755-4e1a-bf8d-68f3cda7062f","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"},"height":1791,"width":1390},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b71f44ae-d0d3-49e7-b807-b0c17f26f317/canvas/_4","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/08f5d4a2-c755-4e1a-bf8d-68f3cda7062f/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/b4409c71-7b18-4118-a137-1da30b34785c/full/300,300/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/digitalcollections-baylor/iiif/logo"}
