B: Sam Bayard, "Hill Country Tunes" 1944 #84
N: Played by Emery Martin, (near) Dunbar, PA, Oct 14, 1943.
N: Learned from his brother, who learned it from F.P. Provance.
N: Emery Martin learned this tune by ear, and for a long while called it "The Fillmore Provance Tune,"
N: thus -- as is quite common -- naming it after the fiddler from whose playing his own family acquired
N: it. Later, upon his playing the air for someone else, he was told that the title given here was the
N: correct one, and accordingly adopted it. His informant also told him that the tune, under this name,
N: was to be found in the collection "Gems of the Ball," which the editor has not seen.
