INDEX TO CAROLS. |
||
|
I had hoped to have inserted a Carol by the Rev. R. S. Hawker, of Moorwen -stow, Cornwall, but it was previously engaged for the Christmas number of ' Household Words.' I must, however, take the opportunity of correcting a mistake in' Trenoodle's Specimens of Cornish Dialect,' where the song of ' The Trelawney Rising' is treated as an old ballad. This spirited composition is the production of Mr. Hawker. |
