A good war-date printed Northern penny song sheet, ca. 1863, 1p. 8vo., entitled: "HOW LEE WAS WHIPPED at Gettysburg," composed by Mrs. G. P. Hardwick, printed in red and blue ink, published by Mrs. Hardwick, New York, reading, in part: "In June of '63…Gen'l. Lee had a plan into Washington to go. For Lincoln's men men are going home…he starts the raid with Stuart to lead the rebel van…but our Union Boys had seen the game and here's the reason why. They'd watched these Rebel tactics, while the goose hung high. They Stuart whipped with heavy loss…and back to Old Virginia his command now fled…brave Gen'l. Meade then took command…at Gettysburg they routed them: Lee says to Richmond [we will] go…Now, Davis light your pipe with this…Lee hasn't got to Harrisburg nor into Washington. Now Grant has taken Vicksburg…you cannot whip the Yankee Boys while the goose hangs high." Many more patriotic verses. Some fold wear, else VG.
