Text from left to right:

Lincoln: Come, Boys! they are all waiting for you---- You have staid THERE long enough! I will forgive you this time if you will try to do better in the future. Only think what a bad example you show the other boys!

South-Carolina: You let me alone! I will play in the mud if I like.

1st State:Well, we've been playing hooky enough; I guess I'll go back!

2nd State: Boys, he is after us! I'll reconsider!

3rd State: If that's UNCLE "Abe", I'll put my trowsers right straight on again.
