'''NINE MILE [2].''' Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Missouri. G Major. DDad tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Drew Beisswenger (2008) points out the first strain is similar to "[[Nine Miles Out of Louisville]]" (as fiddled by Kentucky's Buddy Thomas), but suspects it may be an older version due to the cross-tuning. The tune was also in the repertoire of Hallsville, Missouri, fiddler John White, from whom Seattle fiddler Vivian Williams (who recorded him for Voyager Records) learned the tune. White himself learned it from a volume published in St. Louis in 1928, E.F. Adam's '''Old Time Fiddler’s Favorite Barn Dance Tunes.'''
