'''GENERAL SCOTT'S MARCH'''.  English, American; March. The melody dates to the year 1771, although the re-titling of the tune apparently refers to American General Winfield Scott (1786-1866), who served in the War of 1812 and the Mexican-American War. It appears under this title in J.L. Rumrille and H. Holton's '''The Drummer's Instructor''' (Albany, 1817).  It is a much older tune than 1817, however, having appeared in the Charles and Samuel Thompson's '''A Second Collection of XXIV Favourite Marches in 7 parts as they are performed by His Majesty's Foot and Horse Guards''' (London, 1771).
