His most popular work, The Sweetest Story Ever Told,[1] was published in 1892 and was still popular into the 20th century. According to the Morrison family history,[2] he was the son of Jacob Stults and Martha-Jane Morrison. The first of five children, he was born on June 1, 1861 in Hightstown, N.J.. He was married to Julia Vandermeer.[3] Prior to 1910, Stults mostly wrote popular music, but after 1910, he wrote more sacred and bigger works.[4] He also used aliases for some of his works, such as the name "Norwood Dale"[5] to write the musical "The Cross Patch Fairies".[6] He also wrote three ragtime tunes, Smoky Sam (1898), Walkin' on de Rainbow Road (1899), and A Moonlight Meander (1900), under the name S. M. Roberts (a play on his name Robert M. Stults). The giveaway that these are his is that the last one, "A Moonlight Meander", was copyrighted by his wife, J. V. Stults, who often copyrighted his music. At his death on March 24, 1933, he, along with Louis M. Bennet, was the publisher of the Long Branch [N.J.] Daily Record.[7] This is a list of works that are mostly songs and piano tunes, written prior to 1910: Title | Type | Copyright | A Dutch Lullaby | Song | 1909 | A Little Choir Boy's Song | Song | 1894 | A Little Dresden Shepherdess-Caprice | Piano | 1899 | A Message in My Dream | Song | 1906 | A Moonlight Meander | Piano | 1900 | Academic March | Piano | 1885 | Again | Song | 1901 | American National Anthems | Song | 1918 | America's Golden Rod: National Song & Chorus | 1890 | Among the Hills of Maryland | Tenor | 1899 | Aristocrat March | Piano | As the Days Go By | 1904 | Avenge the Good Ship Maine | Song | 1898 | Battle Monument Waltz | Piano | 1878 | Because I Know Your Heart Is Warm and True | Because You Told Me So | Song | 1897 | Beloved | Song | 1910 | Birds in the Meadow | Piano | 1917 | Born at Sea and a Sailor | Song | 1898 | Breathe Those Tender Words Again | Song | 1895 | Bull Frogs' Dance | Piano | 1906 | Bulls and Bears March | Piano | 1901 | Cheer Up, Sweetheart | Song | 1893 | Clover Bloom | 1905 | Dolly Doe | Song | 1898 | Drum-Beat March | Piano | 1893 | Fancies | 1894 | For Loves’ Sweet Sake | Song | 1910 | He Told Her That He Loved Her | Song | 1896 | Hollywood Waltzes | Piano | 1885 | Hope on, Sweetheart | 1901 | I Am a Yale Girl | Soprano | 1896 | I Know You'll Not Forget Me | 1899 | I Love Her All Day Long | Tenor | 1895 | I Love Thee So | Song | 1909 | I Love You Dear | Song | 1920 | I Love You Now | Song | 1896 | I Want to See the Old Folks Again | Song | 1918 | I Wonder If You Ever Think of Me | Song | 1901 | If Dreams Were Only True | Tenor | 1902 | I'll Always Think of You | Song | 1900 | In the Golden Long Ago | Song | 1897 | In the Twilight Glow | Song | 1908 | Joan of Arc | Piano | 1895 | Just One Little Look of Love | Song | 1900 | King of Clubs | 1907 | Kiss and Say Goodnight | Tenor | 1898 | Let Me Call You "Dearie" | Tenor | 1910 | Light | Song | 1908 | Listen While I Tell You, Dear | Song | 1898 | Little Jack Horner Caprice | Piano | 1893 | Little Song for You | 1904 | Long Wave Old Glory | Song | 1917 | Love Me Again | 1910 | Loves Sweet Story | Tenor | 1891 | M A C March | Piano | 1897 | Madrienne | Tenor | 1891 | Memories | Song | 1907 | Mona Lee | Song | 1909 | Monumental City | Piano | 1895 | My Clementine | Tenor | 1890 | My Heart Is Yours Forever | Song | 1896 | My Heart's Desire I Find in You | Song | 1913 | My Little Red Rose Goodnight | Tenor | 1897 | My Little Yaller Coon, Good Night | Song | 1896 | My Mothers Favorite Hymn | Song | 1892 | No Sweeter Words Were Ever Said | Song | 1897 | Nonsense Song: A Travesty | Song | 1917 | Once in the Bygone Days | Song | 1906 | Only Dreaming | Song | 1909 | Our Orioles March | Piano | 1894 | Papa's Lullaby | 1897 | Philadelphia March | Philopena March | Piano | Pictures in the Fire | Song | 1895 | Pretty Bright Flowers for Thee | Tenor | 1888 | Redemption | Tenor | 1902 | Revel of the Brownies | Shine on, Mister Moon | Song | 1910 | Sing Me a Song of the Olden Time | Song | 1912 | Sing Me an Old Sweet Song of Love | Song | 1911 | Sing Me Some Quaint Old Ballad | Song | 1908 | Sing Once Again, Sweet Bird | Song | 1891 | Smoky Sam | Piano | 1898 | Song for My Little Maid | St Valentines March | Piano | 1899 | Stand by the Flag Patriotic March | Piano | 1917 | Sweet Dreams to You | Song | 1912 | Sweet Marjorie | Song | 1899 | Sweet Red Roses | Song | 1900 | Take Me Back to Dear Old Dixie | Song | 1910 | That Song Divine | The Advance Guard March | Piano | 1892 | The Ballet of the Birds | Piano | 1904 | The Birds and the Brook | Piano | 1893 | The Birds Ball | Piano | 1911 | The Old First Love Is Best of All | Song | 1896 | The Old Home I Loved Long Years Ago | Song | 1899 | The Old Sentinel March | Piano | 1885 | The Patrician Valse | Piano | 1907 | The Song I Heard Last Night | Song | 1893 | The Star Spangled Banner Patriotic March | Piano | 1898 | The Sweetest Little Girl I Know | Tenor | 1894 | The Sweetest Story Ever Told | Song | 1892 | The Sweetest Words of All | Tenor | 1922 | The Words That Made You Mine | Tenor | 1900 | Under the Stars I Met You Love | Tenor | 1899 | Walkin' on de Rainbow Road | Piano | 1899 | Watermelon Dance (Shuffle) | Piano | 1893 | Way Down South in Dixie | Song | 1903 | When I Was a Boy Like You | Song | 1893 | When the Twilight Softly Falls | Song | 1908 | Whisper | Song | 1900 | White Swan Schottische | Piano | 1900 | Won't You Love Me As of Old | Song | 1898 | Yes, I Love You | Soprano | 1893 | You, Just You | Song | 1910 | |
