GOVERNOR TAYLOR'S MARCH. AKA and see "Napoleon Crossing the Alps," "Bonaparte Crossing the Alps," "Officer on Guard (The)," "Officer of the Guard (The)," "I Won't Be a Nun," "Denis Murphy's Hornpipe." American, March (2/4 time). USA, southwestern Pa. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Bayard (1981) identifies related tunes, perhaps from a common ancestor, as "Pewter Mug," "Tin-Ware Lass (The)," and "Ladies Dressed in Their Garments So Green (The)." It may perhaps be one of the tunes named for or credited to the fiddling Governors of Tennessee, Alf [1] and Bob [2] Taylor (i.e. "Taylor's March," "Taylor's Quickstep").

Source for notated version: Hiram Horner (fifer from Westmoreland and Fayette Counties, Pa., 1944) [Bayard].
