Thank you, Joe, for setting me on the right path. I listened to your suggested site and found the recording was exactly the one I was looking for. Billy Williams was a charming entertainer and it's a shame he had to die in 1915 at age 37. I'm sure he was much appreciated in his day. I haven't had any time to transcribe the words to the song as I've had several busy days of singing and piano playing recently. However, it was great of Jim Dixon to take the time to transcribe a version of this song. Now, all I have to do is learn it before Friday! Thanks again to both of you for your help.
