Communications being what they were in those days, it took still another week for the news of the cease fire to reach Jackson. == Johnny |

Fiddlers always play it in D, in which the chords are D, G, and A7 |

The British commander was killed, and taken home to England pickled in a cask of rum. Common sailors aboard the ship, ignorant of the cargo, discovered the leaky cask and proceeded to drink most of it.Slainte! |
