Subject: RE: Scottish Emigrant Songs
Did anyone actually read the words of "The Scarborough Settler's Lament" as posted above? Methinks it should be "banished SWISS" not "banished SWILL" !!!! I have a recording of the song on a Stan Rogers tape. Incidentally it's the same tune as "Of a' the airts", a Burns song. Taatie B
