Wow - Art, where/when did you meet Lyman King? Bill Hullfish told me a story about a concert tour that he received funding for, where he was asked to perform canal songs up & down the length of the Erie Canal some years back. He was doing a show in the Oswego County area, and one of the songs he did was a text he had gathered from Lionel Wyld set to a tune of Hullfish's choosing (he could not find a more accurate tune for this particular text). A stranger came up after the show and said "hey, I really enjoyed the concert, however, you've got the wrong tune for that one song". The stranger went on to sing the "correct" version of the song, and Hullfish pulled out a tape recorder and captured it along with a few others from this old canawlers memory. That stranger was Lyman King of Fulton NY.
