No more
shall
the
sound
of
the
war-whoop
be
heard,
The
tomahawk,
buried,

rest
in

The
ambush

slaughter
no
longer
be
feared,
And
peace
and
good-will
to
the
nations
abound.
The
above
song
was
composed,
it
is
believed,
soon
after
one
of
the
wars
with
the
Indians.
The
words
indicate
this.
The
tune
is
supposed
to
have
been
com-
posed
about
1835,
but
the
author
of
the
tune
is
not
given
in
any
of
the
books
so
far
as
we
can
find.
It
was
first
published
in
the
"Southern
Harmony,"
by
William
Walker,
1835,
see
page
94.
Nothing
further
is
known
of
the
tune
and
words.

"Social
Harp,"

McCurry,

This
tune
was
first
published
in
the
"Southern

by
William

It
has
been
printed
in
all
the
editions
of
the
"Sacred

from
1844
to
1869,
but
none
of
the

furnish
any
information
about
the
author
of
the
music.
There
are
several

in

of
this
