    Here's Eliott Kahn's post from that time.  It seems that, indeed, you may 
have sheet music for the Yiddish theater song that Eliott refers to. 




  Yes, that is exactly it ((Eli Eli loma asavtoni ...the remainder of the song 
is a Yiddish plaint to God from the suffering Jew: " ... In feier in flam hot 
men uns gebrent ..." )). 
  And since I am new to the Shamash list, thanks for the history of it.
