+B:”Melodist: A Collection of music in two volumes" (1826-1859, No.  29, p. 17)
+N:The melodist is a musician's ms., probably by a fiddler, that contains both
+N:tunes and songs from a variety of sources, American and European. The
+N:inscription on the inside cover reads, "This is from the Bridge family of
+N:Augusta, Maine (Horatio Bridge, friend of Hawthorne's)". However, entries in
+N:the ms. were in different hands indicating several contributors.
+N:The ms. is neat and the notation studied and precise.
