[ Ref. 260703 MMDigest, Appeal for Missing Tune Titles

The numbers and titles of three more Grand roller organ cobs
not on Kevin McElhone's list are as follows:

2141 Benny Havens, Oh!
2143 King Cotton March [Sousa]
3017 Portuguese Hymn [Adeste Fideles].

I know these are all correct because I have the cobs.

However, I have never been able to confirm the correctness of the
title of cob 2142 on his list, "The Robin and the Bear". I have
never come across a piece of music with that title and, as I recall,
Kevin told me at one point that he no longer has a record of who
provided that title to him in helping him complete the list.

I have suggested that it may have come from someone's misreading of
a partial or illegible label on a Grand cob with a similar number
and title: 2012 "Robin Hood -- Four Songs".
