GUEST,R.D. Eno Lyr Req: Lake George, 1922 (Teresina M. Huxtable) (65* d) RE: Lyr Req: Lake George, 1922 (Teresina M. Huxtable) 16 Nov 16


A few corrections to Charlie Baum's 1998 transcription of "Lake George 1922" -- the second steamship was named Horicon (probably Horicon II), not Oregon; "Mothers, cats and children (carrying all that they can take)" should be "mothers, aunts and children," since cats carry very little beside fur; "churning" is probably better than "journeying"; and "rattle (through the dining room)" should be "paddle," since the Sagamore was only half submerged in 18 feet of water and would have been accessible by canoe. It's now 18 years since that transcription of this surpassingly beautiful song was submitted, and I've just discovered it!
