An early fair copy (in an unknown hand) of the lyrics of the song first written and published by George F.

The manuscript does not compare favorably with Root's own handwriting. Octavo (20.5 x 12.5 cm). Unsigned autograph manuscript, in ink, in an unknown hand. Somewhat creased and tanned along the top edge, with a short snag in the top edge barely touch one word, otherwise good or better.
