N:”This is the only Tune I have at all interfered with. I had it played by
N:three different Fiddlers, and they all persisted in ending in the Major
N:Key. viz: making the C in the last bar Sharp. They were unanimous
N:in upholding the version, and when I played it as it is now set, ending
N:Minor, they were very much shocked. And I confess I make the change
N:unwillingly, but at the suggestion of friends to whom I “could not choose”
N:but submit.”
