About This Item
New York: R.A. Saalfield, n.d. [1879]. Sheet music; very good. Printed music, but unfortunately, issued without what could have been remarkable lyrics (given that it was a march, probably none were required). Two years earlier, the prominent banker and businessman Joseph Seligman was denied a room at the Grand Hotel in Saratoga by its owner, one Judge Henry Hilton (no known relation to the later and more famous hotelier with the same last name). Corbin owned a railroad and hotels at Coney Island, and embraced this policy, joining with Hilton to found the American Society for the Suppression of the Jews. Unfortunately, the discriminatory policy endured well past the brief life of this organization.
