One hundred years ago this sum- mer saw the first publication or what is admittedly the most famous peysonal love song ever written. _ If “Annie Laurie” is not the best known of all songs it is close to it. There must be very few persons in the English-speaking world who have not heard it and loved it. There is something about it that clutches at one's heart. It stirs the blood, too, when a military hand swells into the strains which match “And for bonnie Annie .Laurie "I‘d lay me down and die.” The music is perfectly matched to the sentiment. Composers say that the old Scotch song. "Will Ye No Come Back Again,” is the most. marvellous blending of words to music, the notes matching perfectly the sentiment of the words that we have in English. “Annie Laurie” is close to it_in 1:)_e1_~_l‘ection._ "Annie Laurie" was first printed in July, 1824. As a song it was in existence. long before. It is just. what it purports to beâ€"a tender love song by an ardent main to his sweetheart. Annie Was a Living Person. There was an Annie Laurie in real life. She was born on December 16, 1682. the youngest. daughter of Sir Rnbert. Laurie. baronet, ot' Maxwel- ton. Scntlaml, and was a noted beauty. 'l‘hv sung was writtvn by William Douglas 01' Fiugland. Scotland. about the year 1700, when Annie Laurie was nightm'n and Captain Doug as was tm-nty-vight. Captain Doug- [as was a soldier of t‘nl'tune and had just ('umv back than the Continental wars when he met Annie Laurie. Lady John Scott ran across the. Duuglas verses just, at. tho time she hall composed a mvlmly for an old Scottish ballad. “lx'vmpiv Kaye."slm saw that her mvlmly was perfectly adapted for “Annie Laurie” so sho l'l‘VlSl‘d the Douglas versvs slightly and added a third verse. The work was so well olono that. many good judges think the third wrsv the best of the three. The music of "Annie Laurie" as we know it. was composed by Alicia Anne. Sputtiswi‘vod. afterwards Lady John Scott. a daughter of one of the most. ancient familios of Scotland._ Here is "Annie Laurie“ 115 Lady .Iuhn Scott. l'l‘VVI‘Otf.‘ 1t. and as it really should [w sung today: Annie Laurie "Max“ elton's [”305 are bonnie \\ here 931% [”115 the do“.

Her voice is low and sweet, And she‘s a‘ the world to me. And for bonnie Annie Laurie I'd lay down my head and dee!” The one striking difference be- meen the LadV Scott Veision and the one sung today is the last line of each Verse. The modern version has it. “‘ld lav me donn and die,” instead of as both Douglas and Lady Scott had it. ‘Id lay down mV head and die." This change occurred in a pirated edition of Lady Scott's songs in 1829, "Maxwvltcm banks are bmmin. \Vharv early l'a's tllo‘ dew: What-o mv and Anniv lgaurin Mac‘lv Up Hm promise truo: Marlv up the promisv truv.

Alicia Spottiswood’s Tune Adopted by the Soldiers .\.\'.\'l Ii LAI'RIE THE DURHAM CHRONICLE five years after she published “An- nie Laurie.” Curiously enough the pirated version gained greater cur- rency than her own. and though she protested v-igourously against the change in the last line it passed into common use. “Annie Laurie“ was first widely sung during the Crimean War, when it was adopted as the song of the soldiers. From that time to this it has held its place as one of the greatsoqgs of the wqi‘lq. ' Lady JBhn_Sc0tt died as late as 1900. in her ninetieth year. Met' in the Township Hall, on August 2.
