It was my Grandfather Edmund who took the Wallace poem of 1913 and first put it to music. Both my Grandfather and great-Grandfather were fishermen and folk singers from Devil's Island, NS and knew hundreds of songs, including one with 86 verses (the Courtship of Willie Riley ) sung entirely from memory.
