Charles Kunkel (1840–1923) (using pseudonym Carl Sidus)
St. Louis: Kunkel Brothers, 1883? Plate 577.
The date copyright seems to have been written over- whether for clarity or some other reason is unclear. A check on Worldcat suggests that plate 577 and 1883 are perfectly compatible, however. This is a free arrangement of the finale, without the Adagio introduction, condensed.
