The  Grey (Gray?) Eagle was originally written in the key of C and  was written to commemorate an 1838 horse race in which one of the horses was named Grey Eagle. According to Nikos Pappas, "the sheet music version from the commemorative imprint is almost identical to the version played by Uncle Am Stuart."  This is that version.
