INDIAN ATE THE WOODCHUCK [2]. American, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BCC'. John Hartford identifies the first strain as 'a cousin' to "Smith's Reel." Samuel Bayard collected a melody from southwestern Pennsylvania fiddlers John White and Samuel B. Losch in the 1930's whose first strain is similar to Haley's second strain. White called his tune "Injun Et a Woodchuck", while Losch called his "Such a Gittin' Upstairs", although both titles were "floaters" according to Bayard.
