	[[Gossip Jones]] and [[Jolly Shilling]] were published in the Journal of the Folk-Song Society. [[Gossip Jones]] was also popularised by Albino's setting for Unison voices with descant published by Curwen. This is described as being "collected, arranged and words adapted by H. H. Albino" - so perhaps they were not collected by J. D. S Albino after all! Around this time he also arranged [[Stow Fair]] with its chorus characters of "Bill Brewer, Jack Steward, Jerry Hawkins, Dick Joseph, Harry Hillop, Tom Bawling, Dick Chapman, Ben Paxwain - with your Uncle Tom Goblin and all", although this was never published.

	Albino noted the following: "Thomas Lanchbury, who is about 60 years of age works as a cowman. He also "belongs to the tower", that is to say he is one of the local church bellringers, a position whih his father and grandfather held. He can remember the morris dancers and the home-made fiddle that supplied the music. He says that this instrument was made with two tins fixed at either end of a stick of wood with a ~~piee~~ of whipchord [sic] stretched across from one tin to the other. A bow was used but he cannot remember how the notes were made. He says that "there wasn't much of a tune about it, it just kept the dancers going." It probably served to mark the rhythm."

	Albino noted that this was possibly a "humpenscrump". The performance described probably occurred during the 1870s - but this tantalising glimpse gives us no further information as to which dancers were involved.
