General Grant's March


We found this sheet music in an antique store. This is the tune my mother played when in grade school. She was made to play the march on the piano from 4th grade through 8th grade by the nuns. She played it a total of 4 times a day. After 5 years of playing it, we figure she played it a total of 3600 times! When I called her on the phone to tell her of our find, she sang the entire piece complete with the repeat! She is 92 years old. She also rememberd the design on the cover page.
