Hannibal. Actually west of Hannibal. I am pretty sure the song from the database at Indiana University is the right one. However, there's not much more to find. I now think that the composer is J.S. Zamecnik, who evidently wrote a lot of silent film music in that era. Here is a link that identifies the composer in the Indiana University database, one Grant Wellesley, as a name this person wrote under.

Anyone, how would be the best way to find an actual recording of this song, or is it even possible. I don't think it was in one of the movies that this composer provided the sound for.

I'm pretty happy that I have (well, hopefully) figured out as much about this as I have.
