Notes
Columbia A2783 disc label: "Incidental chorus by Irving Kaufman"; Brooks/Rust lists Jack Kaufman as a second vocalist.
Brooks/Rust: "78552 is in the file as Daly's Reel, 78553 as Hill And Dale, both by the Van Eps Trio on 8 July 1919, neither issued; copies of Columbia A2783 bear the matrix number 78522, regardless of the take. Both the Van Eps titles were recorded on matrices 46664 and 46663 respectively on 11 July 1919 (as re-makes), which may account for the error in the numbering."
