* Text D, words only, which is identical with Sharp's A version, was traced by the collector to an informant “who was singing this ballad before Cecil Sharp had collected in the Southern Appalachians.” In correspondence with the reviewer, this same informant, who is also the source of 10, 11 and 13 in Vol. 1 and 243M in the present volume, points out the incorrectness of the collector's data.
