Well, Folks: I'm excited! Thanks for the leads! DaveO: do you have a citation for Leadbelly's version? There's a "Patteyroller'll Get You on "Altamont: Black Stringband Music" from the Library of Congress. I think that's the same melody I got from John Burke's old time song book. I've been asked to do a presentation re the Underground Railroad, and I figger that one'll be a good song to do. Kinda put stuff in context, you might say....
