Thread Name: Lyr Add: The Three Hunters
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: THE THREE HUNTERS
I was working as a folk song counselor at a very democratic camp in 1953. All decisions were made by group vote. I taught the youngsters Hunted and Hallowed, that I learned from Bill Bonyon and another feller who was a marine biologist down La Jolla, (his name escapes me right now.) Then I asked each group to make up a verse to the song. I remember three.

next thing we did find, was a newly tarred road, and that we left behind. Some said it was a newly tarred road, the other said nay. They said it was Floyd Ireson, with the feather washed away

Some said it was a new verse to this song, but THE MAJORITY SAID NAY And that is why we have, no new verse today.

Some said it was a horse, the others said nay Then the horse said NAY, hell, we all three ran away.

ALSO by way,

It is NCLR, at least it originally was, I was involved in changing it.

Also by the way

It can still be NCLR if you are a member of DAM (Mothers Against Dislexia}

Owls and Howls,
