Summary edit

Description
English: * Note from author on cover: "The lone grave" is situated on the Western and Atlantic R.R. between Chattanooga, Tenn. and Atlanta, Ga. A plain board marked the resting place of a solder. Name "unknown." None could tell whether he had been a Federal or Confederate. The section hands, when laying the track discovered the grave, sodded it over beautifully and placed a head-stone over it bearing the above inscription. The traveler's attention is always called to this spot and the train "slows up" in order to give all an opportunity to see it. Let this be an olive branch to the north and south to be again a united people.
  • Statement of responsibility : words and music by Paul Dresser.

Licensing edit

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1891, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
