The Writing OF The Battle Hymn


ed to change color with the progress
of her nation. When our land was
stained with the blood of its defend
ers, and the war bugles rang through
the country, her voice took the cry
| and echoed back war paean, a Bat
| tie Hymn grand enough for the
march of the Republic to its greatest
conquest, the victory of SELF
In the first year of the war DR.. and
Mrs. Howe made journey to Wash
ingson. Every moment seemed to
bring them some new experience OF
the terrors OF war. One afternoon
party drove out to the camps outside
| of Washington to visit Colonel VIII
liam Greene.
Some days after this Mrs. Howe
witnessed a review OF troops, which
was interrupted by a sudden move
ment on the part of the enemy. Rein
iorcements must be sent to band of
nearby Union troops who had been
surrounded; the review was aband-
oned for the day, the remaining sol
d:ers going back to their tents.
The carriage in which Mrs. Howe
rode was surrounded by armed men,
compelling slow progress She pos
sessed fine voice and to beguile the
time she sang the John Brown song,
for which the soldiers shouted
hearty good for YOU
Mrs. Howe then spoke to her
friends of the desire she had so often
felt of writing words of her own which
might be sung to that stirring tune.
Her wish was soon fulfilled She lay
down that night with her mind full of
scenes Of war( and awakened before
the dayn OF the next day with the
verses Immediately present in her
mind
She sprang from her bed and finding
pen and paper and in the light which
was so dim that she could scarcely see,
the famous poem was written. She
returned to her bed and sleep, saying
to herself: Il like that better than
, anything | have ever written
