The lodge of of Glentana, or Glen Taner, was a sporting estate situated in the forest of Glen Tana, Aberdeenshire, near Aboyne in North East Scotland. A wealthy banker and philanthropist from Manschester, William Cunliffe Brooks, fell in love with it in 1869 and determined to make it his home and develop it into a earthy paradise, which he accomplished in grand style and maintained until his death in 1900. The first Lady Brooks was Jane Elizabeth Orrell, whom he married in 1842, and who died in 1865. A second wife was also named Jane, daughter of Lt. Col. Sir David Davidson, who had come with his family to live in a villa near to Glen Tana. There was a significant difference in their ages--Brooks was aged 59 and Jane was 27., and they were married in 1879.  
Matt Seattle finds an ancestral tune in an older Scottish melody called "[[Put on thy Smock on a Monday]]/Put on Your Sark on Monday" (there are various spellings), which can be found in lute manuscripts. He says, "A clear continuity of musical development can be traced through the most significant local versions in the William Dixon manuscript (1733), '''Peacock's Tunes''' (c. 1805) and here in the Clough collection (early 20th century)" [http://www.asaplive.com/archive/detail.asp?id=C0100001]. Scottish versions can also be found as "[[Drunken Wives of Carlisle (The)]]" (Robert Riddell) and "[[Gi'e the Mawking mair o't]]."

The Northumbrian Small Pipes
The Northumbrian Small Pipes

One of the core tunes of Northumbrian piping repertoire. J. Collingwood Bruce & John Stokoe (1882) remarK: "This tune has at some remote period been used for a song, of which now only a fragment in known—

I saw my love come passing by me,
But shame to the hade, she ne'er cam' nigh me.

In some very old copies it is marked as the 'Duchess of Northumberland's Delight'--an allusion, probably, to Elizabeth, the first Duchess, who (with her husband) by her patronage and support greatly encouraged the use of the pipes in the country."
Matt Seattle finds an ancestral tune in an older Scottish melody called "Put on thy Smock on a Monday/Put on Your Sark on Monday" (there are various spellings), which can be found in lute manuscripts. He says, "A clear continuity of musical development can be traced through the most significant local versions in the William Dixon manuscript (1733), Peacock's Tunes (c. 1805) and here in the Clough collection (early 20th century)" [1]. Scottish versions can also be found as "Drunken Wives of Carlisle (The)" (Robert Riddell) and "Gi'e the Mawking mair o't."
