There are two possibilities (I haven't seen the film): Mary Scott, a march composed by the Scottish violinist (he preferred that to "fiddler") James Scott Skinner (1843-1927); and Mary Scott (the Flower of Yarrow), a tune found under various names in both Southern Scotland and Northern England, first appearing in the early 18th century. |
