Dayton, Ohio : United Brethren Printing Establishment, 1874.
Created for the United Brethren in Christ denomination, this collection of 174 hymn tunes and texts is intended for Sunday schools and worship services. As the editor states in his introduction, every song has been selected to illustrate some Biblical truth. This collection is notable because it includes a brief series of lessons on how to read sheet music.
