EuGene ADD:Be Kind to One Another /Dying Mother (22) RE: ADD:Be Kind to One Another /Dying Mother 22 Jun 07

Joe:

The verse beginning with "Oh! Be kind to one another," was the chorus and was sung more than once. Mom said that she remembers that it was two verses/chorus/two verses/chorus/two verses/chorus (the final chorus with a gradual slowing down on the last 3 notes to end the song).

Also, the last two lines of the verses (other than the chorus) went like this:

1/4..1/4..1/2..1/2..1/8..1/8..1/4..1/4
.G....G....C....C....C....C....C....G (these C notes are above the G & there was somewhat of a fermata extending the last G)

1/4..1/4..1/2..1/2..1/8..1/8..3/4 (all these notes are below the G)
.E....E....F....E....D....D....C

(for the last note I put 3/4 to indicate a dotted half note)

Neither Mom nor I could remember how the first two lines of those verses went.

Maybe the above additional info will help track down the tune.
