Cave-In-Rock, view on the Ohio (circa 1832), from Karl Bodmer's book "Maximilian, Prince of Wied's Travels in the Interior of North America, during the years 1832–1834"

GREEN SLEEVE. American, Reel (cut time). E Minor ('A' part) & G Major ('B' part). Standard or EDae tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune was collected from the playing of Henry Hall (1880-1965) of Cave-in-Rock, Hardin County, southern tip of Illinois, recorded in the field in 1956 by Millie Angleton. Cave-in-Rock was named after a cavern on a high bluff on the northern bank of the lower Ohio River, a picturesque spot that was the lair of successive gangs of river thieves and robbers, a scourge to river navigation until finally rooted out by the 1830's.
