LADY JOHN SCOTT. Scottish, Strathspey. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Composed by William Marshall (1748-1833). Lady John Scott (1810-1890) is Alicia Spottiswoode, according to Moyra Cowie (The Life and Times of William Marshall, 1999), who married John Scott, the third son of the Duke of Buccleuch. Alicia was a great historian and the author of many famous ballads, including "Annie Lawrie," "Durisdeer" and "Think on Me" (see note for "Annie Laurie"). See also the companion title "Lord John Scott."
