%% Transcription Notes:
%%
%% The tunes are in alphabetical order by name, not in publication order.
%% The single-tune files have names that are just the titles, with '_' separating the words.
%% Initial articles (a, an, the) are omitted in the file names
%% (and made lower-case in the file's T: line).
%% Tunes with duplicate names have further identification (year, page) in the file name,
%% though not in the tune's T: line.
%%
%% The original had tall, narrow pages, and the tunes were formatted to fit that layout.
%% Most of the tunes here have been reformatted for a modern (A8, US Letter) format.
%% This isn't musically significant, and you should arrange the staff breaks to fit
%% your own needs.
%%
%% The X: index numbers are made from the page number (2-3 digits),
%% plus one digit for the tune/song/dance number on the page.
%% For pages that start with a tune/song continued from the previous page,
%% a tune that starts on that page will have '2' as its number.
