MONTGOMERY'S FUNERAL. American, Air or March (2/4 time). D Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). ABA. "Montgomery's Funeral" and the preceding tune in Riley's collection, "Montgomery's Slow March," both have a notice of "copyright" above the melody, indicating that they were fairly recently composed and perhaps first printed in Riley's collection. However, the name of the composer does not appear.
