This concludes the brief study of "Seventeen"- the headnotes are considered "rough drafts" and will be proofed again later. TY to Steve Gardham and others who have contributed to this thread. Significant is the total of 15 versions of Waukrife Mammy where previously only the Burns and maybe the Lyle were recognized- both incomplete.

I need to finish the painting of the song and the Appendices- both in progress. Please post any missing texts on this thread.
