	Our Singing Country
	6  Then 1 put it in some moose5 Purpose of to make my winters shoes. 7   Then I hung it in the loft3 'Long come a rogue and stoled it off. 8   Darn the rogue that stoled it off 5 Left my toes all out to the frost.
	HOG ROGUES ON THE HARRICANE eb. No. 1517. Theophilus G. Hoskins, Hyden, Ky., 1937. "This is Tom Hardy and Lishe Morgan's hog song. There was some hog rogues down the river here, and they was accused of stealing hogs} and old Tom Morgany he made that song. It was on some of our people, and he was our people y too; but he made the song. Some of them wanted to kill him over it} and some of them saidy 'Let him go} he's all right* said} 'He's a purty good feller' I learned that when I was about five years old, and I'm fifty-eight now. That's been about fifty-three years ago} I guess."
