76. Thus did Fanny Crosby (Memories, p. 128) refer to them, but in England, according to Sankey (My Life, p. 77) and Ludwig (Sankey Still Sings, p. 14), a penny edition of his Sacred Songs and Solos was known as "little Sankey's." William R. Moody, however, gave his father such credit for the publication of Sacred Songs and Solos and for Bliss's and Sankey's Gospel Hymns and Sacred Songs that he referred to them collectively as the "Moody and Sankey Hymnbook" (W. R. Moody, Life of Dwight L. Moody, pp. 170–181, and D. L. Moody, pp. 198–209). Compare Sankey's different account of the origin of Sacred Songs and Solos in his My Life, pp. 47, 53–54. Day (Bush Aglow, p. 178) combines W. R. Moody's account with Sankey's.

77. The correspondent probably was William Earl Dodge, the elder, who was very close to Moody, but it could have been his son, whose interests were similar to his father's. On the elder Dodge (1805–1883), see William B. Shaw's biographical sketch in DAB (vol. 3, pp. 352–353) and the unsigned sketch in the National Cyclopaedia of American Biography (vol. 3, pp. 174–175). On the younger Dodge (1832–1903), see National Cyclopaedia of American Biography, vol. 13, p. 352; Day, Bush Aglow, pp. 178–179; and W. R. Moody, Life of Dwight L. Moody, pp. 173–175, 572–575; and D.
