11 23 O. K. ON OLD JOHN BROWN
We are under a solemn pledge to speak of the rare
talents and accomplishments of Deacon O. K. of this city, as a singer of that
stirring anthem of the war, widely known as “Old John Brown.” The Deacon has a voice of great compass,
power and sweetness, which he has cultivated and disciplined to such an amazing
degree as if its melody was mingled with the celestial harmony of the
spheres.
He passes with the utmost ease and rapidity from the
deepest toned notes to the highest and glides from “Old Hundred” to “The Blue
Jay” with marvelous facility. Meet him
in the social circle and he is the delight and life of the party. He banishes dullness away in an instant . .
. Encounter him most anywhere, in the
street or at the post office, take him a little one side, and give him the
hint, and he will gladly favor you with a private concert, and before he gets
half through, you will almost fancy the Deacon is walking arm in arm with John
Brown himself, in the other world, as he chants the words “his soul is marching
on.”
But for the promise repeatedly drawn from us, we
certainly should not feel justified in bringing forth from modest seclusion
even so much genius and merit and make them the object of public attention,
though it is a great loss and pity that the world should be deprived of such
musical talents as those with which the “child of song” has been gifted.
It must be that he carries on the lumber business
merely for the fun of the thing, as we have never heard that he makes any
additional charges for the extra services he always renders in the way of
throwing in a tune or two when he is making a bargain.
In fact, he talks and trades in musical notes and
numbers, and soft and bewitching tones are generally the first indications of
his approach or presence, when the whole atmosphere seems to become vocal with
the richest sounds! WD
