It was one of his favorite tunes (ibid, p. 159), and he said he had learned it from his father, fiddler Bob Wine, although he did not know for sure where his father had learned it.

Hacker was recorded by Louis Watson Chappell in 1947. Calhoun County is the neighbor of Braxton County. [[File:melvin.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Melvin Wine]]
