THE SCOTTISH BORDER. 261
Joseph Ritsoiij took down this ballad from the mouth of
the reciter, and printed it as part of an intended collec-
tion of Border Ballads, which was never published. His
nephew, Mr Frank, was so good as to favour me with
the copy from which it is here given. To the illustra-
tions of Mr Ritson, I have been enabled to add those
of my friend Mr Surtees.
