Coincidentally, John's daughter, Katy, wrote to me early this morning to correct a transcription error in one of her dad's songs which was archived at GEST Songs of Newfoundland and Labrador prior to my taking the site over from Frank White in 2002.

Whoever contributed the lyrics transcribed "shingling sand" instead of "shingle and sand" as Johnny had written it. When I wrote back to confirm the correction, I told Katy I also added a definition of 'shingle' in a footnote for any future visitors, so there would be no future misunderstanding.

Then, tonight, I check in at the Mudcat and find all these additions to a five year old thread all about the man who, as can be easily seen from his song, was a most excellent songwriter.

I salute Little Johnny Cameron, a man I never knew, in the same spirit as he shared in his Tribute To Newfoundland.
