Two sisters, Mildred Hill, a teacher at the Louisville, Kentucky Experimental Kindergarten, and Dr. Patty Hill, the headmaster of the same school, together wrote a song for the children, called Good Morning to All. As the local expert on spiritual songs, and as the organist（风琴师） for her church, Mildred combined her musical talents with her sisters knowledge in the area of Kindergarten Education, Good Morning to All was sure to be a success.The sisters published the song in a collection named Song Stories of the Kindergarten in 1893.Thirty-one years later, after Dr. Patty Hill became the head of the Department of Kindergarten Education at Columbia Universitys Teacher College, a gentleman by the name of Robert H. Coleman published the song, without the sisterspermission. What was worse, he added a second verse（歌词） Happy Birthday to You.Mr. Colemans addition of the second verse made the song become well known and, gradually, the sisters original first verse disappeared. Happy Birthday to You, the one and only birthday song, had altogether replaced the sisters original title Good Morning to All.After Mildred died in 1916, Patty, together with a third sister, Jessica, discussed the issue together and took Mr. Coleman to court（法庭）, they proved that they, indeed, owned the melody（曲调）.
