Seek Tear-Jerker Song "An Hour Too Late"
By D. L. Bullock

I'm looking for the music for a Victorian parlour ballad called,
I think, "An Hour Too Late".  It's a typical 1890s American tear-jerker
about a woman who commits suicide just before the telegram comes saying
her husband is on the way with the rent money, etc.

If anyone has this or knows where to find it, please reply.

D. L. Bullock    Piano World    St. Louis

 [ From the description it sounds like it's related to the all-time
 [ classic tear-jerker song about the man on the train, accompanying his
 [ wife's body which lies in a coffin "In the Baggage Coach Ahead"!
 [ -- Robbie
