Description: Tune first published in Southern Harmony, Edition 4, 1840, p. 240, for three voices, with notes in four-shape format. The tune is based on The Ballad of Captain Kidd, an eighteenth-century English song (Jackson 1953a). Porter and Garst (1979) found more than twenty tunes in this unusual meter, including the present one.
