N: composed by Daniel or Donald Dow, a musician of note who died at Edinburgh in
N: 1783. The third was substituted for the more difficult second by modern fiddlers, and
N: the fourth, the editor memorized from the playing of Wm. McLean, the greatest
N: Highland piper of his day in Chicago, some fifty years ago.”
