The plot thickens: as a result of further sleuthing, Tony has found entries in the Bodleian database that Weston and Norworth collaborated in the writing of 'Molly Malone' and 'Now that the lights are low', the latter recorded by Cunliffe. It is reasonable to surmise that they collaborated in the writing of 'In these hard times'.

We are still seeking the lyrics for the Norworth recording.
