The dedication reads "Devised for Bill Thorpe for his help as chairman of the Caledonia Group of S.C.D. Dartmouth, N.S." SCDDB gives the preferred tune as Sundrum Castle, but a copy of the instructions mentions the recording <<ddrec:#2463>> which does not include that tune.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (4). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
