Seek "Throw Out The Life Line" Piano Roll
By Kevin Somerville

-- forwarded message, please reply to sender and MMD --

Hi Jill, can you assist please?  A "Sacred Song" piano roll is wanted
called "Throw Out The Life Line".  We think it may have been an old
Salvos [Salvation Army?] hymn.  It was issued apparently in the 1920s,
but has not been in production for decades.  I have a very special
client that we are trying to obtain a copy for.

Regards,

 [ "Ufford's inspiration came from a life saving drill he observed
 [ at Point Allerton, near Boston, Massachusetts.  He wrote the
 [ words and music shortly after returning home."
