Geocache Description:


I enjoy listening to music from different historical time periods, and lately I have been listening to civil war music. Some of the songs here will be easily recognizable, others are much more obscure.

L

The man who wrote the song played in recording L was born October A, 1832, and died June 8, 188B. This song was played so much around General William T. Sherman that he grew to hate it.

M

The song in recording M was used by the campaign of the winner of the 18C0 presidential election. It was so popular that the publisher ran D4 printing presses and still could not keep up with the demand for the music.

N

The lyrics of the hymn in recording N have references from Isaiah E3 and Revelation 1G. The hymn was also sung at the January 30, 196funeral of a man who provided leadership and inspiration for the Free World in its fight and ultimate victory against Facism and the beginning portions of its fight against Communism.

R

The author of the song in recording R was born on December 2J, 182K.
