Complete with six pages including the cover. Light soiling and wear with a couple of short closed marginal tears. Old tape repair to the spine. Very scarce; at time of listing OCLC reports no copies of this sheet music held by any institution. There are no examples in the trade and no auction records at the Rare Book Hub. Although often credited to Root & Cady or others the original lyrics of this famous Civil War ballad were actually written by a young soldier Lawson Wood while he waited to die in a Union hospital after being mortally wounded during the initial battle at Vicksburg. Root & Cady planned to publish the soldier's far more heartrending lyrics as written under the title "On the Field of Battle Mother" and later explained that a mistake was made "in regard to these words." See "George F. Root" by P. H. Carder and "The Compendium of Every Day Wants" by Luther Minter. This example published by Brainard in Cleveland simultaneously with Root & Cady's Chicago 1862 edition contains the dying soldier's original lyrics. Very scarce; as of 2018 OCLC reports no copies of this sheet music held by any institution. There are no examples in the trade and no auction records at the Rare Book Hub. <br/><br/> S.
