COLLIER'S DAUGHTER, THE. AKA and see "The Duke of Rutland's Delight," "The Nine Point Coggie [1]." Scottish; Scotch Measure (cut time), Country Dance Tune and Air (2/2 time) or Strathspey. G Dorian/G Mixolydian. Standard tuning. ABB (Sharp): AABB (Barnes, Glen, Johnson, S. Johnson). A tune from c. 1710 whose second strain, like many song airs of the time turned for the fiddle, is basically a reworking of the first strain in a different octave, with incidental parts combined. Johnson's version is taken from the James Gillespie Manuscript (1768, pg. 38), but also appears in major key versions in the Margaret Sinkler (1710) and Patrick Cuming (1723-4) manuscripts. Glen (1891) finds it earliest published in the Neil Stewart's 1761 collection (pg. 43), however it appears earliest in print in Playford (compare the abc versions below).

The lot of the collier and his family in the British Isles before the 19th century was dire. Lord Henry Cockburn (1779-1854), writing in his Memorials of His Time (published posthumously in 1856), gives an idea of how desperate were their conditions in Scotland, and how slowly did change occur:

slaves. They could not be killed nor directly tortured; but they belonged, like the serfs
 
of an older time, to their respective works, with which they were sold as a part of the

gearing. With a few very rigid exceptions, the condition of the head of the family was

the condition of the whole house. For though a child, if never entered with the work, was

was resisted by the owner. So that wives, daughters and sons went on from generation

to generation under the system which was the family doom. Of course it was the interest

of a wise master to use them well, as it was to use his other cattle well. But, as usual, the

of tyranny or anger. We do not now know much of their exact personal of domestic condition.
T:Colliers Daughter [1]
But we know what their work makes them, even when they are free, and within the jealous
benevolence of a softer age. We know that they formed a separate and avoided tribe, as to
a great extent they still do, with a language and habits of their own. And we know what
slavery even in its best form is, and does. The completeness of their degradation is disclosed
by one public fact. The statue passed in 1701, which has been extolled as the Scotch Habeas
Corpus Act, proceeds on the preamble that "Our Soverign Lord, considering it is the interest
of all his good subjects that the liberty of their persons be duly secured." Yet, while introducing
regulations against "wrongous imprisonment, and undue delays in trials," the statute contains
these words-"And sicklike it is hereby provided and declared that this present act is noways
to be extended to colliers or salters." That is, being slaves, they had no personal liberty to protect.
***
These facts enable us to understand the hereditary blackguardism, which formed the secondary
nature of these fixed underground gipsies, and the mysterious horror with which they were
regarded, and which, in a certain degree, attaches to all subterranean labours.
***
The first link of their chain was broken in 1775, by the 15th act of George III. It sets out on the
preamble that "many colliers and salters are in a state of slavery and bondage." It emancipates
future ones entirely, that is, those who after the 1st of July, 1775, "shall begin to work as colliers
and salters." But the existing ones were only liberated gradually; those under 21 in 7 years; those
between 21 and 35 in 10 years. The liberation of the father was declared to liberate his family.
And the freed were put under the act 1701. But this measure, though effective in checking new
slavery, was made very nearly useless in its application to the existing slaves by one of its
conditions. Instead of becoming free by mere lapse of time, no slave obtained his liberty unless
he instituted a legal proceeding in the Sheriff Court, and incurred all the cost, delay, and
trouble of a lawsuit; his variable system of masters always having their workmen in debt.
The result was that, in general, the existing slave was only liberated by death.
***
But this last link was broken in June 1799 by the 39th George III, which enacted that from
and after its date "all the colliers in Scotland who were bound colliers at the passing of
the 15th George III shall be free of their servitude." This annihilated the relic.
***
Those two statutes seem to have been neither the effect nor the cause of any public
excitement. I do not see either of them even mentioned in the Scots Magazine. People
cared nothing about colliers on their own account, and the taste for improving the
lower orders had not then begun to dawn.  (pp. 70-72)
