Gibb,
Whall 1910 contains the following songs:
Shenandoah Adieu to Maimuna Homeward Bound Rolling Home La Pique The Dreadnought Doo Me Ama Farewell and Adieu Sling the Flowing Bowl Blow, Ye Winds, in the Morning Unmooring Boston The Female Smuggler The Voice of Her I Love Come, Loose Every Sail to the Breeze Will Watch Shannon and Chesapeake Sally Brown Can't You Dance the Polka Across the Western Ocean Goodbye, Fare You Well John's Gone to Hilo Bound for the Rio Grande One More Day We're All Bound to Go Lowlands A-Roving Reuben Ranzo Stand to Your Ground Stormalong Poor Paddy who Works on the Railway The Plains of Mexico Blow, Boys, Blow Blow the Man Down The Fishes The Whale Admiral Benbow Early in the Morning High Barbaree Cheer'ly Man Johnny Boker Paddy Doyle Boney Haul Away, Jo The Hog-Eye Man
By the 3rd Ed., both "La Pique" and "The Dreadnaught" are gone for some reason.
I haven't seen the 2nd Ed., which is said to be "enlarged." The 3rd, published in 1913 within a few months of the 2nd adds the following songs to the 1910 list (not in order):
The 24th of February Hanging Johnny Jamboree Nigger Songs Cawsand Bay The Buffalo So Handy, My Girls Challo Brown Dixie St. Helena Soldier O Fare-You-Well, My Bonny Young Girls! Johnny Boker Shakings A Hundred Years Ago Dead Horse Whisky Black Ball Line We'll Ranzo Way!
In the 6th Ed. (1927) only the following have been added since the 3rd:
Boney The Banks of Sacramento Clear de Track, Let de Bulgine Run Run, Let the Bulgine Run
