I wish all members a very Merry Christmas. Here is the original score as written for the Medford/Malden race. As you know, it was composed by the son of the chaplain of the 22nd Regiment of the Massachusetts Volunteers, John Pierpont.Two weeks after joining the regiment, he quit, having found the task too much of a strain on his health.He was seventy-six years old. His son, the composer of the tune, married the daughter of the mayor of Savannah, GA, where he served in the Confederate forces.
