Joshua Kane - Lyr Req: The Arbutus (Paddy Graber) (45) The Arbutus - Grater or Graber ????? 01 Mar 99

I have long enjoyed the folksong "the Arbutus" which appears on Gordon Bok's CD "Return to the Land"

I am trying to track down the authorship of the piece as well as a copy of sheet music for it. In the liner notes for the CD they list the authorship as Trad/ Graber, which I assume means the text is a traditional piece of unknown origins and the tune or it's arrangement is being credited to someone named Graber or Grater if the search engine odf this site is correct.

Maybe I even have it backwards. any help with info on the origins of the oiece and where I ccan find a copy of music for it would be appreciated. I can be reached at JoshuaKane@aol.com

Thanks in advance.
