  • "Sung with great applause in the entertainments of the Hutchinson Family."
  • This piece is actually attributed to "J. J. Hutchinson", but outside sources broadly agree that this is in fact an abbreviation for two of the members, Judson and John Hutchinson. This is common in the Hutchinson Family Singers' works.
