I'm looking for the words to a Cape breton folk song that I heard in my youth because I can't remember all of it.It begins something like this:
Sad was the news that they brought to Lake Ainslie
Sad was the news and the message they brung
Poor (Sally ______) was a dying in Boston, boys,
Dying in Boston, given over for dead.Has anyone ever heard of it or better yet do you know the full version. I would be eternally grateful for it is a fine song and one that I's lkke to have in my repetoire.
