DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Frank C. Brown Collection of North Carolina Folklore, Vol. 2: Folk Ballads From North Carolina This continuity will strike every reader and perhaps raise a critical question as to the editorial principles of inclusion in the present volumes. One answer has just been suggested. The other is more practical. Dr. Brown and his collaborators were still in the early stages of collecting; sifting was to follow. The General Editor, no doubt out of deference to Dr. Brown's methods, passed all the material on, as he has explained, to the Associate Editors, with responsibility to treat it as their judg ment should dictate; and the Associate Editors, probably also out of deference to their predecessors, have sometimes applied the principle of exclusion with reluctance. And the present writer, last in succession, has in turn deferred to precedent as having neither authority nor competence to decide against his betters. The reader may therefore be grateful with the Psalmist, and also remember the words of another Teacher: Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over.
