LADY ELIZA CALLANDER'S FAVOURITE. Scottish, Slow Air (6/8 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. Lady Elizabeth Callander, the third wife of Colonel James Callander, died at Criagforth, Stirlingshire, in October, 1797, leaving behind five young children. Aird gives the tune's provenance as "Irish," however it was first printed in John Watlen's Celebrated Circus Tunes (Edinburgh, 1791), where Watlen claimed composer credit for the jig. It was unlikely that Aird did not know this, for he reprinted (in his Selection, vol. 4, 1796) every single tune in Watlen's earlier volume, without crediting his source. Watlen composed a tune called "Miss Callander’s Minuet," which may refer to a member of the family.
