(CIVIL RIGHTS.) KU KLUX KLAN. Midnight's Roll Call. Five pages (complete) of engraved music, front cover elaborately engraved with three "K"s inside of which are skull and cross-bones, etc. Nashville, TN: R. Dorman, Masonic Temple, 1868
an exceedingly rare piece of very early klan music, possibly the earliest, not noted in Krew's "Klan Sheet Music," not in OCLC, apparently a unique copy. A terrifying piece of music, probably intended for induction purposes. The young recruits stand ready "and all the bony warriors send up a shout of joy." It is hard to imagine how the performance of this music went down.
