M-1185
Daniel Emmett composed the words and
music of "Dixie", but it was Herman Arnold
of Montgomery, Ála., who, in 1860, wrote the
original band score from the music score that
Emmet wrote upon the wall of the old Mont-
gomery Theatre with a piece of Charcoal, as he
did not have a copy of the music to give to Mr.
Arnold. This original band score is preserved
in the Alabama State Department of Archives
and History.
