The Frank C. Brown Collection of NORTH CAROLINA FOLKLORE;
Volume 3 & Volume 5 [Under construction- the first three chapters are basically finished- to improve this book, I'll do the individual songs attached to each chapter- upcoming]
[Contents; Abbreviations, Introduction, Index, Contributors
** Song texts are in separate additions attached to this page- See column on left]
[To make this easier to use I'm separating the songs in Volume 3 into chapters as they appear in the book, the first section will be I. COURTING SONGS continuing through 658 texts. After that I'll do individual songs attached to the chapters. Volume Three is the folk song texts and Volume 4 has the music and texts to the ballads. Volume 5 has the music to the folk songs. There will be only two volumes presented in my collection (Volume 3 and later Volume 2- with music from Volume 4). I'm combining the music from Volume 5 to the texts in Volume 3. There are some additional texts in Volume 5. There are also several additional songs I'll include as an appendix later. Later I will add Volume 2- The ballads. Note that Volumes VI and VII: Superstitions From North Carolina (not included here) were not listed since they were published later.
NOTE: The chapters with songs are attached as pages to this main page and can be found on the left hand column- click on the page to open it.]

FOREWORD
VOLUME II has a foreword for both the Ballads and the Songs. In the present volume of Songs, Nos. 1-327 are edited by Professor Belden; the remaining Songs, Nos. 328 to 658, by Professor Hudson.
Here it is proper to add only that as the work of printing has progressed a few irregularities have been noted and corrected, though doubtless others still remain. Dr. Schinhan tells me, moreover, that he will have additional texts taken from phonograph records, which were not available to the present editors, but which will be printed in volume IV. He will also have there some tunes for the Games described in volume I.
We can say now. with my Lord Chancellor. Francis Bacon: "Nothing is finished till all is finished." In the fifth volume we hope to gather the loose threads together for a final report.

FOLK SONGS FROM NORTH CAROLINA
N.C.K.. Vol. III, (3 ) SONGS
THE DISTINCTION between ballads— as folklorists now use the term — and other types of folk song was first formulated, so far as I know, by the eighteenth-century poet William Shenstone, Percy's friend and adviser in editing the Reliques. He wrote to Percy in 1761 : "It is become habitual to me, to call that a ballad, which describes or implies some Action; on the other hand, I term that a Song, which contains only an expression of Sentiment." In arranging the contents of the Brown Collection we have decided to follow this principle. But it has been found necessary to apply the terms in a very elastic spirit. In scores, perhaps hundreds, of instances there are hints, traces of action, but no definite story is told. The composite and desultory character of a great deal of traditional folk song makes a strictly logical classification of the items impossible. But the items must be placed in some order. If a given piece is found among the ballads when it seems to be rather merely a song, or vice versa — if the placing of items seems some- times merely arbitrary — we must plead necessity.

CONTRIBUTORS
TO VOLUME II AND VOLUME III
ILJERE are included, in one alphabetical list, the names
both of these persons who gave their contributions di-
rectly to Dr. Brown and to the North Carolina Folklore
Society — or to another collector whose materials have
been added to our collection — and of those from whom
they obtained their texts of the Ballads and Songs ; and
also, when known, the names of the singers. Thus for a
single text there may have been two or three or even
more "contributors." But the records are often unclear
or incomplete, proper names are variously spelled, and
many details which Dr. Brown's or Dr. White's memory
would have supplied are now missing. We hope, how-
ever, that any inaccuracies and omissions will l^e for-
given. When a contributor's name occurs in two forms,
before and after marriage, it is usually entered in the
latter form, with a cross-reference. The numeral fol-
lowing each name shows the number ( as accurate as we
can make it) of the contributions appearing in these
volumes.
A Supplementary List, printed below, contains the
names of those who sent in items which were not. for
various reasons, used by the Associate Editors of vol-
umes II and III. Many of the same names occur in both
lists.
A complete list of all contributors was earlier com-
piled and mimeographed by Dr. White, and may be con-
sulted in the Duke University Librarv.
Special mention should be made of Mrs. Sutton's numerous
contributions, often with lively and illuminating commentary of
her own; of the many texts collected by Julian P. Boyd (now
distinguished in quite different ways) from his old pupils in
Alliance; of the unusual number sent in by Thomas R. Smith,
by Miss Jewell Robbins (later Mrs. Perdue). ])y W. Amos
Abrams, by L. W. .Anderson, by K. P. Lewis, and bv Miss Ger-
trude Allen (later Mrs. V^aught) — to name only those with
fortv or more texts to their credit. Dr. IJrown and the North

the Society throni^ii Professor C". Alphonso Smith. Miss lulilh
Walker and .Miss I .ura Wagoner generously lent Dr. lirown
their manuscri])t hooks to copy from. Dr. White borrowed in
1943 a similar book from Mrs. llarold (dasscock. In 1944
through the agency of Dr. Abrams the Blaylock Collection of
274 ballads and songs was presented to the Society, and from
it a large selection was made by Professor Hudson and J. W.
McCullough. Professor Hudson also made liberal use of the
unpublished Master's thesis at the University of North Caro-
lina by Mrs. Mercedes S. Steely. Details of these accpiisitions
and other pertinent information are to be found in the editorial
notes accompanying the texts. It hardly need be said lliat the
addresses given there are not correct for the present, and no
attempt has been made to bring them down to date.
