The log cabin was rented so that I could recreate the original scene of the Singin' Gatherin'. It was presented in front of a windowless cabin.I covered the cabin with an American flag because it had a glass window in front. The American Folk Song Festival was held annually until 1972, when failing health forced <mask> to retire. Thanks to a benefactor's gift of land and a windowless log cabin, the festival took place from 1934 to 1949. In the 50's, the festival was held in <mask>' yard in Ashland, and in the 1960's and 70's it moved to the Carter Caves State Park. The festival followed a script for many years that was intended to show authentic sequences in America's musical history. Volna Fraley's nephew would blow a fox horn that belonged to "Devil Anse" Hatfield, the legendary feuding family of the Kentucky-West Virginia border, to signal the start of the performances.

texts: The English military officer was named <mask>. He was hired as a military adviser by the Pilgrims. From its foundation in 1620, the administration and defense of Plymouth Colony was led by <mask>, who accompanied the Pilgrims on the ship Mayflower. On February 17, 1621, the Plymouth Colony militia elected him as its first commander and continued to re-elect him to that position for the rest of his life. On a return trip to England, <mask> was the assistant governor of the colony and the agent of the colony. His proclivity for pre-emptive action was a defining characteristic of his military leadership. He led at least two attacks against Native Americans in a raid on the village of Nemasket.During these actions, <mask> exhibited courage and skill as a soldier, but disturbed more moderate members of the colony due to his brutality toward Natives. One of his last military actions was against French troops at Penobscot in 1635. He became a farmer in Massachusetts in the 1640s and was one of the first settlers. He acted in an advisory capacity while he was the nominal commander of the Pilgrim military forces. He died in 1656 at the age of 72. There is no evidence to suggest that he ever joined the church of the Pilgrims. Monuments have been built in his memory, and several towns and military installations have been named after him.He is portrayed as a timid romantic in a highly fictionalized account of The Courtship of Miles Standish by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The Pilgrim story was a big part of American culture in the 19th century. <mask>'s place of birth and early life have

The Isle of Man is the only place named in the will that is outside of England. Some historians think he was born in the vicinity of Chorley, where a family named <mask> owned a manor. There is no proof that <mask> <mask> is related to that family.There is a competing interpretation of where he came from. There is no documentation of his birth in the Isle of Man. Nathaniel Morton wrote in his New England's Memorial that <mask> was heir apparent to a great estate and that he was a gentleman. He was a soldier in the low countries and came to New England with a familiarity with the church at Leyden. It's not clear what <mask>'s military career was in the Low Countries. The Dutch Republic was at war with Spain. Queen Elizabeth I of England supported the Protestant Dutch Republic and sent troops to fight the Spanish in the Netherlands.Some historians think that <mask> played a part in the English military. According to Nathaniel Philbrick, he was a hired soldier of fortune seeking employment in the war, but according to Justin Winsor, he received a commission as a lieutenant in the English army and was promoted to captain while in Holland. The historian argued that <mask> served under the general who led the English troops in the Netherlands at the time. Soldiers were recruited for the expedition in the Isle of Man, as well as in other places. According to Tudor Jenks, <mask> came to the Netherlands around 1603 and may have seen service during the siege of Sluis

The Treaty of London ended English involvement in the war and if <mask> was a mercenary he might have continued to serve with the Dutch until the Twelve Years' Truce ended fighting in the region in 1609. In 1620, at which point he was living with his wife Rose in Holland and using the title of "Captain", <mask>'s activities and whereabouts were recorded.He was hired by a group of Puritans from England who wanted to form a colony in North America. The military adviser was <mask>. The Puritans were hoping that the position would be taken by Captain John Smith, who was one of the founding fathers of the English colony in Virginia. The Pilgrims approached Smith and he expressed interest, but his price was too high and they feared that his fame and bold character would lead him to become a dictator. He was already known to the Pilgrims. On July 22, 1620, a group of English Dissenters boarded the Speedwell, which was supposed to take them to England. The Brownist congregation was included in the initial group.The Bradfords, Carvers, and others were on board. The small, 60-ton pinnace sailed toSouthampton with about 30 passengers to join a larger vessel for the voyage to the New World. The 180-ton Mayflower would carry 90 passengers. The Speedwell had some leaks in the port that caused delays, but both vessels left on August 5. The leaders of the colony decided to leave the smaller Speedwell behind after numerous delays caused by leaking, which caused them to return to port twice. The Speedwell went to London to be resold, with only a few passengers, after the Standishes and

texts: most of the passengers crowded into the Mayflower. On September 6, 1620, the Pilgrims sold some valuable supplies such as butter to pay the mounting port fees and left for the northern part of the Virginia Colony.On November 9, 1620, lookouts spotted land, but they didn't know they were near Cape Cod. They tried to sail south, but the strong seas forced them to retreat to Cape Cod. They settled near Cape Cod because the weather wouldn't allow the passage south. It was too dangerous to press on for a Virginia landing because of the shortage of supplies. The leaders of the colony wrote the Mayflower Compact to ensure a degree of law and order in this place where they had not been granted a patent to settle. There were 41 men who signed it. The establishment of the colony was anchored off Cape Cod after <mask> urged the colony's leaders to allow him to take a party to find a suitable place for settlement.On November 15, 1620, he led 16 men on foot in an exploration of the northern portion of the Cape. On December 11, he led a group of 18 to the shore of Cape Cod by boat, spending their nights on the shore surrounded by barricades of tree branches. They were attacked by a group of Indians. They panicked and were calmed by <mask>, who urged them not to fire their muskets unnecessarily. The First encounter took place in Eastham, Massachusetts. The site for the Pilgrims' settlement was chosen in December of 1620. The placement of a small fort in which cannon were mounted and the layout of the first houses were given important counsel by <mask>.They had only built a single room house.

One of the few people who did not fall ill was <mask>, who was credited with comforting many and being a source of strength to those who suffered. This was the beginning of a decades-long friendship as <mask> tended to Bradford during his illness. The position of governor was held by Bradford for most of his life. In terms of character, the two men were very different; Bradford was patient and slow to judgement, while <mask> was known for his fiery temper.The two worked well together in managing the colony despite their differences. The colonists had seen Indians several times, but there was no communication. The men of the colony formed a militia on February 17, 1621, consisting of all able-bodied men, electing <mask> as their commander. The decision to hire him for that role was made by the democratic process. He was re-elected to that position for the rest of his life. He drilled his men with pikes and muskets as captain of the militia. Samoset, an English-speaking Abenaki, arranged for the Pilgrims to meet with the sachem of the Pokanoket tribe.The Pokanokets and the Colonists were required to defend one another in times of need after the governor of the colony signed a treaty with the tribe. Governor Carver died in the year that the treaty was to be upheld. The task of reacting to threats against both the Pilgrims and the Pokanokets from tribes such as the Massachusetts and the Narragansetts was a constant preoccupation of the two men. In order to deter their rivals,

The first challenge to the treaty came in August 1621 when a sachem named Corbitant began to undermine Massasoit's leadership. The Pokanoket village of Nemasket is now the site of Middleborough, Massachusetts.Two trusted interpreters were sent to determine what was happening in Nemasket. The survival of the colony was ensured by Tisquantum. A high-ranking advisor to Massasoit, and a warrior who commanded respect and fear among the Indians, Hobbamock was an influential ally. Tisquantum was taken captive and threatened to be killed when he arrived in Nemasket. Hobbamock escaped to warn others. They agreed that this was a dangerous threat to the alliance and decided to act quickly. On August 14, 1621, a group of 10 men went to Nemasket to kill Corbitant.The two men were close for the rest of their lives after they were guided by Hobbamock. He was part of the household in Duxbury in his old age. The shelter in which Corbitant was believed to be sleeping was to be attacked by <mask>. They ran into the shelter, shouting for Corbitant. As Pokanokets tried to escape, <mask>'s men fired their muskets, wounding a Pokanoket man and woman who were taken to the hospital. Corbitant fled the village and Tisquantum was not hurt. The raid had the desired effect.The treaty of loyalty to King James was signed on September 13, 1621, by nine sachems, including Corbitant. A bundle of arrows was delivered in November 1621 by a messenger from the Narragansett tribe.

There was a serious threat from the Massachusett tribe to the north due to the arrival of a new group of English colonists. The leader of a new colony arrived in April 1622. They were

The settlers of the poorly managed colony angered the Massachusett tribe through theft and recklessness. The Wessagusset and Pilgrim colonies were to be destroyed by a group of influential Massachusett warriors. He told them to strike first. The settlement of Wessagusset was in danger, according to one of the colonists. He reported that the colonists in Wessagusset had been repeatedly threatened by the Massachusetts, that the settlement was in a state of constant watchfulness, and that men were dying from starvation. The Pilgrims decided to kill the leaders of the plot after a public meeting in which they were called.There was a personal aspect to the mission. One of the warriors threatening Wessagusset was a Neponset named Wituwamat. When he arrived at Wessagusset, he found that many of the colonists had gone to live with the Massachusetts. The leader of the group threatening Wessagusset was from Massachusett and came to the settlement with other warriors the day after <mask>'s arrival. "Let him begin when he dare; he shall not take us unawares," said Pecksuot to Hobbamock. "You are a great captain, but you are a little man," he said as he looked down at him. I am of great strength and courage even though I am not a sachem.After a meal in one of Wessagusset's one-room houses, <mask> arranged to meet with Pecksuot. Wituwamat's brother, as well as several women, were brought by Pecksuot. There were three men in the house. On an arranged

After ordering two more Massachusett warriors to be put to death, he went outside the walls of Wessagusset to look for Obtakiest. They encountered Obtakiest with a group of warriors, and a skirmish ensued in which he escaped.After completing his mission, <mask> returned toPlymouth with Wituwamat's head. The leaders of the plot to destroy the settlements were killed, but the action had unforeseen consequences. The settlement of Wessagusset was abandoned after the incident. The settlers left for a fishing post on Monhegan Island. The panic among Indian tribes was caused by the attack.

A group of English settlers established an outpost in Quincy, Massachusetts, not far from the site of Wessagusset. The settlement earned the nickname "Merrymount" after being officially known as Mount Wollaston. The Pilgrims found objectionable and dangerous behavior encouraged by Thomas Morton. The men of Merrymount built a maypole, drank liberally, and sold weapons to the Indians. <mask> was ordered to lead an expedition to arrest Morton in 1628. The small band at Merrymount had barricaded themselves within a small building as <mask> arrived with a group of men.The Merrymount group were too drunk to handle their weapons when Morton decided to attack them. The captain ripped the weapon from Morton's hands. Morton was sent back to England by <mask> and his men. The Massachusetts Indians were referred to as "Captain Shrimp" by Morton in his book New English Canaan. The last significant expedition was against the French who established a trading post on the Penobscot River in Maine. The settlement was captured by the English in 1628. The Pilgrims relied on it for furs and timber for seven years.The settlement was easily reclaimed by the French in 1635. The post should be reclaimed in the name of the colony. This was a larger proposition than the small expeditions which <mask> had previously led and, to accomplish the task, he chartered the ship Good Hope captained by a man named Girling. The Good Hope was supposed to be brought within the cannon range of

The Massachusetts Bay Colony was established by this time.The Bay Colony refused to help with the reclaiming of the trading post. The rivalry between the Massachusetts Bay colonies and the Pilgrims persisted. The province of Massachusetts Bay was formed in 1691. In 1625, the leaders of thePlymouth Colony appointed <mask> to travel to London to negotiate new terms with the Merchant Adventurers. If a settlement could be reached and the Pilgrims could pay off their debt to the Adventurers, the colonists would have new rights to use the land. In April 1626, <mask> returned to his hometown of Plymouth. The colony's debt to the Adventurers was paid off in 1626 with the help of several leading men, including <mask>.The leaders of the Colony were free of the control of the Merchant Adventurers and were able to organize a land division. Each family in the colony was given a large farm lot. He built a house in 1628 after receiving a farm in Duxbury. After the Penobscot expedition, there are indications that <mask> began to seek a quieter life, maintaining his farm and livestock. He was 51 years old at that time, and he began to give up the responsibility of defending the colony to a younger generation. According to the colony records of 1635, Lieutenant WilliamHolmes was appointed to train the militia as <mask>'s immediate subordinate.

There is no record of how the town was named, but the coincidence suggests that he had something to do with it. In the 1640s, <mask> took on an increasingly administrative role.

He was a member of the Steel Guitar Hall of Fame. <mask>' main genre was American country music, but he also performed jazz and Western swing. He recorded with Linda Ronstadt, Gram Parsons, The Everly Brothers, The Carpenters, Roger Miller, Ernest Tubb, John Hartford, Little Jimmy Dickens, Ray Price, Judy Collins, George Strait, John Sebastian, and Ray Charles. Changes made to the steel guitar by <mask> have become standard in the modern-day instrument. His name is on a US patent for a mechanism to raise and lower the pitch of a string on a steel guitar and return to the original pitch without going out of tune. He won the Academy of Country Music's "best steel guitarist" nine times.Two years before his death, he was honored by the Country Music Hall of Fame in a tribute called "The Big E: Salute to <mask>". <mask> was born in Indiana. When he was eleven years old, his father bought him a lap steel guitar and arranged for him to attend a music school in Indiana. He started to figure out how to play the country music on the radio. He has said that he was influenced by some of his first musical influences. His playing had progressed a lot by the age of fifteen. He started spelling his name Buddie because he wanted to have six letters in his first and last names.His name may appear in published sources spelled that way, including the song title "Buddie's Boogie". He began performing with local bands after his parents bought him a triple- neck guitar. He left high school at the age of sixteen and moved to Illinois with a childhood friend to play in a band.

The pedals on a pedal steel guitar allow the player to change the pitch of one or more strings. A separate volume pedal is used to compensate for the attack and decay of the strings.<mask> moved to Nashville at the age of 18 after Little Jimmy Dickens heard him playing with the band and offered him a job. A popular act in country music, Dickens's band had complex arrangements and fast twin guitars. Dickens arranged for his band to record music under the name The Country Boys. Two of <mask>'s originals, "Raising the Dickens" and "Buddie's Boogie", became steel- guitar standards. Dickens dissolved his band as a solo act. Nashville was where <mask> began doing recording sessions. Faron Young's hit version of "Sweet Dreams" was the result of one of his first studio sessions.<mask> contributed to the evolution of the pedal steel guitar by splitting the function of the two pedals that changed the pitch of the strings. The "split-pedal" setup is now the standard pedal arrangement in the E9 tuning, since it allows greater musical flexibility than the earlier pedal setup pioneered by Bud Isaacs. <mask> used this split-pedal innovation on Ernest Tubb's "Half a Mind (to Leave You)". <mask>' name is on a US patent for a mechanism to raise and lower the pitch of a string on a steel guitar and return to the original pitch without going out of tune. A vexing problem in the design of the instrument was the problem of a string going out of tune after stretching to raise the pitch. The Sho-Bud Company was formed by <mask> and Shot Jackson. In 1962, <mask> added two more strings to the E9

He left Tubb in 1962 to join Ray Price and the Cherokee Cowboys. The hit song was produced by him and Price. <mask> added two "chromatic" strings to the E9th tuning on this song, using another of his major steel guitar innovations.The standard 10-string pedal steel guitar tuning includes thesechromatic strings. <mask> created many of the arrangements on Price's recordings over the next several years. Willie Nelson's song "Night Life" was recorded by Price in 1963. The solo bridges on <mask>' song are considered to be one of the most innovative and important sounds in country music lore. <mask> left Sho-Bud and formed the Emmons Guitar Company after failing to get Shot Jackson interested in his new guitar design ideas. Between tours with Price and recording session work with George Jones and Melba Montgomery, <mask> continued to record and tour with Price. <mask> left the Cherokee Cowboys due to his dislike of Price's interest in performing pop-style country with strings.Roger Miller offered <mask> a job in his band. <mask> played bass in Roger Miller's band and did studio work on pedal steel.
