On the night of Dec. 30, 1862, two armies camped across Stones River from each other near Murphreesboro, Tenn. Brass bands for both armies serenaded the troops. Toward the end of the evening, the union band struck up Home Sweet Home and the confederate band jumped on it, with both bands playing the tune together. The story goes there wasn't a dry eye in either camp. The slaughter would begin the next morning. I'm playing this melancholy song on a S.S. Stewart Thoroughbred, circa 1895.
