Rex,
I may be misreading your question of 19 August 2021, but the footnote on the page with the song, in the Lomax book, cites Spalding as the source.

I agree that the Spalding situation has its mysteries, but I'm not sure if you are alluding to bigger questions or just the simple question like "Who says it came from Spalding?" and you missed the footnote.
