Hello, everyone. Two polite letters and many patient months of waiting later, I am sorry to say that I have been unable to get any response from Fiona Fraser concerning the authorship of the two controversial verses to "Hard Times Come Again No More". I am no longer willing to spend time on this project. Perhaps there is someone who visits the Mudcat from time to time who knows Fiona and who would be willing to ask her who wrote them?

cheers,
