Notes
  • This collection consists of a single German-language songbook entitled "Musikalische 5 Cent Collection" most likely dating from 1883. It provides the lyrics and music for three songs: "The Christmas Light" ("Das Weihnachts=​Licht"), "Wenn der Herr die Gefangenen Zions erloefen wird" ("When the Lord Delivers Zion's Captives") and "Fortfestung" ("A Mighty Fortress"). The final two pieces constitute a musical setting of Psalm 126. This copy was printed in Knoxville, Tennessee by Tilghman Haws.
  • The Musikalische 5 Cent Collection was a Knoxville-based society that issued monthly German-language songbooks at a cost of 5 cents apiece. According to the organization, these books provided "the cheapest, handiest, and best edition of choir and holy folk songs ... in addition to good instrumental music printed from new plates." Tilghman Francis Haws was born to German immigrants Edward and Sarah (Sherer) Haws on May 7, 1834 in Northampton, Pennsylvania. He married Amelia Smith on June 17, 1873 and the couple had six children. Haws died on July 4, 1916 in Knoxville, Tennessee.
  • The University of Tennessee Special Collections Library (Knoxville, Tennessee) is the digital publisher.
