THE JOHN BROWN SONG.
Origin and History of IA Once Popular Cor
position.

Origin and History of "a Once Popular Com
position.
1t is generally supposed that the John
Brown song was first sung hy the soldiers in
1861. Certain it is that when the Massachu-
Setts troops, under commend of Col. Fletcher
Webster son of Daniel Webster. were ell
camped on one Of the islands of Boston Har-
Dor, before they set out to the front, they gave
vent TO their patriotism by singing
John Browns body lies mouldcring in the
grave,
But his soul goes marching on.
Sprague Hall was the reputed author of
the words, though he never laid claim to it
himself The truth is the original John
Brown song WIS written by woman, Edna
Dean Proctor, just alter John Brown was
hung a; Harper's Ferry, and from this song
WAS taken the first line OF the song as now
sung. J5aa@
But the tune, one may ask, who frst sung
that? Aqeestion. surely. Like the tune of
God Save the King" TO which we sing
"My Country ;Tis Of Thee" it may be an
old folk song 10 which nobody has right TO
app end his name, a song the school children
of Germany were singing long before any
claim was ma by Great Britain.

The melody was introduced into the soldier
camp by Mr. Greenleaf, of Charlestown, Mass.
The soldiers sang it when they went to the
front; it made the welkin ring in the Army
of the Potomac and soon enlivened every
rally in the North, from the Atlantic to the
Pacific 1t was echoed and re-echOed from
the Red River to the James and Iesounded
among the mountain peaks of Tennessee and
Georgia. 1t cheered the famishing soldier III

to operate against guerrilla bands. In the
early Spring of 1862 it was ordered down
the river via St Louis, Cairo, and up to
Pittsburg Landing, Tenn
Then came the terrible battle. We were
under McC!ernand's command. Our Colonel,
Hare, commanding the brigade, was severely
wounded Our Lieutenant-Coonel, Hall,
commanding the regiment, had his horse
killed under him. Many good man fell i'll
that struggle.
Then came the siege and capture of Cor
inth, Miss. There was plenty of service during
the Summer of 1862 at Bolivar, Tenn, to
Iuka, Miss, and back to Corinth, Oct. 2
In the early morning of Oct. 5, we were
called into line of battle some two or three
miles west of the town to meet VanDorn and
" Pap" Price, with their Confederate forces.
This Friday night VanDorn's men slept where
we had the night before; not that they were
whipping us, but because we had a little sur
prise for them nearer town in the shape of
some 30-pound Parrott batteries. The various
regiments were placed to support these bat
