Bob-

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll PM Malcolm Douglas and see if he's able to sort out anymore info. Hamish apparently was not a packrat himself, and his brother Colin, who was, unfortunately left all his stuff to a neighbor who got rid of much of what he'd been collecting over the years; the daughter was only able to save a few letters and a poem before "stuff" was sent to the dump.

And do take down your old banjo and pick a tune or two. It can't possible hurt.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
