Funeral March

Thanks for posting all of these tunes. I'm new to the site, but I've been playing awhile, and it's always nice to have new things to play.

How odd.  I don't remember where I got my PDF copy of 'The Green Book' but it's apparently missing pages 56 and 57.  Glad you had posted this here, I thought I was going crazy!

I suppose it makes me a bit eccentric but there are several funeral marches that I like.

One for Daniel Webster, Elmer Ellsworth, Lincoln, not to mention "Roslyn Castle", which I've read was often used for such events.

Those are some good tunes I have a copy of Ellsworths that I was working on, don't know if it's ever try to banjo arrangement though. I believe Howe's Musical Companion calls Roslyn Castle a "Dead March".

I can't get enough of these minor key banjo tunes from the minstrel and classic eras.
