>>>The MOORE GIRL by Andrew & Jim Baxter (Victor) is not about a girl
drowning in Pudget Sound, but about a steam engine on a small (20 miles)
local track somwhere in the Southern Mountains (Blue Ridge?). Apparently the
railroad was abandoned in the teens or 20's. 
In fact the violin imitates the engine, and the words 'go something like
this': 
'This is the Moore Girl. She stops every station...Next train comes at 3
o'clock.'

Thanks for the correction, Alex, and my apologies!

One last one to add to the list:

COMBS HOTEL BURNED DOWN - Roscoe Holcomb

Best,
