X: 3062 T: the Bonny Highland Laddie (or Cairney Mount) O: Old %R: march, reel B: Niel Gow & Sons "Complete Repository" v.3 p.6 #2 Z: 2021 John Chambers <jc:trillian.mit.edu> N: The notation for alternate endings in the 2nd part is a bit odd, N: with a double bar after the pickup but no |: start-repeat sign, N: plus a duplicate of the pickup notes in the first ending. This N: is a guess at what the modern notation might look like, though N: there may be better ways to notate it.
