I hope that he did list them somewhere because I'd hate to think the
"dozen more" are lost or forgotten. Here's ten:
The Marchioness of Huntly
Aboyne Castle
The Countess of Crawford
Jas O Forbes
John McNeill's Reel
The Marquis of Huntly's Reel
The Pride of the Dee Waltzes
The Pride of the Don Waltzes
Bonnie Glen Tanar
The Shakin's o' the Pocky (with JSS) >>
Here's another nine to supplement Nigel's list:
Brig O'Boyne
Cropies Strathspey
Dean Brig Reel
Earl of Crawford
Frank Gilruth (strathspey)
Frank Gilruth (reel)
Gillan's/Gillian's Reel
Muir O' Gellan
Tarland Memories
So thats nineteen of Henderson's stated 24 printed. The other five are still
hiding, not to mention the further dozen more alluded to.

Andrew Kuntz
