| Quite discussion is going on as to the
origin of the song "John Browns Body"
A Mr., Sweetzer is claiming the honor tor
| Massachusetts regiment III the spring OF o..
| That the song is of Kansas origin we have
| not the least doubt. we heard ltsung py
some OF the Second Kansas boys, In the En-
poria Nevs office, in the latter days OF No
vember 1861. One oil the singers was Charles
Stotler-brother Of Hon. Jacob Stotler-who
afterwards fell in the battle OF Cane Hill or
Prairie Grove. Delighted with the words
and thrilled by the sweetness and volume OF
the music Of the chorus, we asked the boys
| where they got it, and the answer was: ION,
all the Kansas soldier boys are singing it."
