Born October.12.1858.
If he were still around he would be about 156 years old.
In honour of Jawnell's B-Day
here is a link to one of his all-time favorite songs.

but scroll from down to pages 284 to 293 anyway.

I dont know about you,but I was almost afraid to scroll further down that page.
I was concerned that there may have also been a published photograph of 'Little John L' there too.
(If you know what I mean,and I think you do).

I wonder if perhaps Dr. D.A Sargent had any other photographs in his files
of other famous celebrities of 1892 'Buck Nekkad' too.
