GUEST,Kevin W.	Origins: James Madison Carpenter- Child Ballads 3 (135* d)	RE: Origins: James Madison Carpenter- Child Ballads 3	13 Jul 18
Was there a broadside print of Child 11, The Cruel Brother during the sixteenth century? Accordign to the notes in the John Calre book it should exist. Looking at the Roud Index I found these entries: Fine Flowers of the Valley Source Lane: Catalogue..Chapbooks & Broadsides..Harvard College No.839 Format Printed : Street literature : Broadside / Chapbook catalogue Src Contents Reference only It's just a reference, there's no text to go by. And another one: The Cruel Brother First Line There was three ladies play'd at the ba' Source Tragical Ballad of Lord John's Murder, The Format Printed : Street literature : Chapbook Printer / Publisher [For the Booksellers] (Glasgow) No.79 Here's the text for that one: http://digital.nls.uk/chapbooks-printed-in-scotland/archive/108701622?mode=fulls Together with The cruel brother. Glasgow : Printed for the booksellers, [1840-1850?]. But the date is too late. I can't find anything earlier than that.
