Maybe they will get it in my Library. So sad that two sides of our own country had to fight each other, and yet sang songs and listened to each others bands. I didn't know they had bands with them.

At church recently when it was being played before the service a friend told how she was with a Missionary in the car with this driver. The missionary started singing Nearer My God to Thee as they were travelling holding on with white knuckles. My friend said she cant listen to the song without thinking of the story and laughing.
