FRATERNITY SONG "DEAR OLD FRATERNITY"
DEAR OLD FRATERNITY,
ALL MY LIFE THROUGH,
I'LL LOVE AND CHERISH,
THE MEM'RY OF YOU.
SHOULD HARM BETIDE ME,
THOU E'ER WILL GUIDE ME,
SIGMA, DEAR SIGMA,
PHI EPSILON TRUE.
Submitter comment:
THIS SONG IS SUNG AT PARTIES TO SHOW THE LOVE A PERSON HAS
FOR HIS FRATERNITY. IS IS SUNG VERY SLOWLY, AND IT HAS A
SENTIMENTAL VALUE TO ALL OF THE BROTHERS.
