GUEST,Phil d'Conch Origins: Delia / Delia's Gone (73* d) RE: Origins: Delia / Delia's Gone 08 Mar 25

Ancestry.com: Moses "Coony" Houston (1886-1929)

Mentioned in the John B. thread way back in 2020.:
"...The ever popular “Hoist the John B. Sails,” without which the programme would have been incomplete was the last item on the programme. Needless to say it met with the heartiest applause and as an encore the Orchestra gave “Delia” also a well-known local air set to music by Mr. Prouty....”
[The Nassau Guardian, (NP) 4 April 1903, p.2]

Notes:
Prouty's Orchestra played the winter season at the St. James Hotel, Jacksonville, FL., 1883-1900 before moving to the Hotels Colonial & Royal Victoria, Nassau for seven years. There's sheet music for John B. Nothing so far for Delia.
