LaRena sings "The Shingle Mill".
This is a fragment of a song usually called "Harry Bale" about a tragic mill accident that took
place in Michigan in the 1870s. John A. Lomax included a version in his 1911 book "Cowboy
Songs and Other Frontier Ballads". The Lomax version is at the bottom of the page.
