	The Twa Sisters
	9. The miller robbed her of her gold, Sing I dum, sing I dey; The miller robbed her of her gold; The boys are bound for me. The miller robbed her of her gold But he plunged her into a deeper hole, Says I'll be kind to my true-love, If she'll be kind to me. 10. The miller was hung on a gallows so high, Sing I dum, sing I dey; The miller was hung on a gallows so high; The boys are bound for me. The miller was hung on a gallows so high; Sister Martha burnt close by, Says I'll be kind to my true-love, If she'll be kind to me.
	c "The Two Sisters." Also recorded by Mrs. Henry from the singing of Mrs. Samuel Harmon, Cade's Cove, Blount County, Tennessee, August 13, 1930.
	1. Was two sisters loved one man, Jelly flower jan; The rose marie; The jury hangs o'er The rose marie.
	2. He loved the youngest a little the best, Jelly flower jan; The rose marie; The jury hangs o'er The rose mane.
