Thanks to those above, especially Watson.

Steven, thanks for the link. The reason I want to learn the song is to do with it's connection to Burn's "Scots Wha Hae".

I originally read about Thomas Muir in Tom Steele's book "Scotlands Story". I don't have it with me but wasn't there something about due process of law in Scotland being put aside to conduct the trial? The trial lasted a day with five and a half hours of defence eye witness testimony that clearly proved Muir's innocence, all of which was completely ignored by Lord Braxfield.

It is an extremely good song written in retrosect. It is factual and accurate unlike some written on other topics.

Thanks again,

Teribus.
