Re: Mary Erskine X 2...the dance named for which one by Roy Goldring?

Hi Robb,

Most likely the answer is B.  Roy Goldring explains that the dance was
written "to celebrate the tercentenary of Mary Erskine School" in 1994.
That would mean it was founded in 1694, which fits with the dates you
mention.

Roy chose a super tune to go with the dance: Shuter's Hornpipe.

Cheers,

Chris, New York.
