Description
English: Original listing and sheet music here: https://musescore.com/user/36482158/scores/8101599?from=youtube_share
Here's another march snatched from the jaws of obscurity, copied from a blurry score from Ted Tjaden's site, 

ragtimepiano.ca. Written by an otherwise unknown composer it was published in Chicago in 1899 by Sol Bloom. Sol Bloom is a character we've encountered before in this series. Originally a songwriter, he started his own publishing business in Chicago and then moved it to New York City. In 1923 he was elected for the first of 14 terms to the US House of Representatives where he became an outspoken advocate for the cause of Jewish rights during the 1930s and 1940s.

Score #124 in my current ongoing series "Women Ragtime Composers" where we uncover interesting scores all written by ragtime-era women. See the set link below for all, lots more are coming.

Original score source: http://www.ragtimepiano.ca/images/oldhickory.pdf I've reproduced the original score here to the best of my ability, the score is a bit hard to read in places.

Coming up next: nine scores from the best composer you've never heard of, Louise V. Gustin. Looking forward to this one.
