There are two editions in the Harding collection; the one Nutty meant was Harding B 12(149), printed by Burbage and Stretton of Nottingham 'between 1797 and 1807', so a little older than those already mentioned.

Always best to provide proper references in order to avoid confusion. This link will take you to the reference page for all:

Doctor Mack / Tally O the hounds

Unfortunately, 'Ninepenny Marl' didn't acknowledge any source on their website; but I rather suspect that it was originally the Holme Valley version. Their transcription reads as if they got it from somebody who learned it off a record and misunderstood some of the words.
