X:1 T:Air [33] T:Troop, A M:3/4 L:1/8 R: S:The Buttery Manuscript (c. 1784-1820, No. 43, p. 9) N:John Buttery (1784-1854) joined the 34th Regiment in Lincoln, N:Lincolnshire, England, in 1797 and served as a fifer until discharged in N:1814. His large ms. contains marches, duty calls, dance tunes and airs. N:EASMES identifies this as the Fife MS. and suggests a date of 1780, see N: https://www.cdss.org/elibrary/Easmes/Index.htm Z:AK/Fiddler’s Companion K:G G2 BGBe|d2 c2B2|g2 fedc|B2 AB G2| G2 BG d2|G2 BG gf/e/|f2e2d2:| |:e2 egfg|d2 dgfg|c2 edcB|BAGFED| e2 egfg|d2 dgfg|Ac B2 A2|G6:|]
