Excerpt from Report on "the Star-Spangled Banner," "Hail Columbia," "America," "Yankee Doodle" In December, 1907, I received instructions from the Librarian of Congress to bring together the various versions both of text and of music with notes as to the historical evolution of The star-spangled Banner, ' Hail Columbia, ' America, and Yankee Doodle. The report was to be brief and light of touch, but accurate enough for practical purposes. This task would have been comparatively easy had the literature on the sub jcet been reliable. Unfortunately it crumbled under the slightest critical pressure, and it became imperative to devote more research and more analytical and synthetic thought to the report than had seemed advisable at first. This and the fact that the report had to be compiled without neglect of current duties accounts for the delay in submitting it.
