The Pringle Collections
John Pringle, born c. 1770, fiddler-composer of Edinburgh, published 2 collections: A Collection of Reels Strathspeys & Jigs (Edinburgh, 1801), Printed & Sold by J. Hamilton, No. 24 North Bridge Street, and A Second Collection of Strathspeys, Reels, Jiggs &c (Edinburgh, date unknown) Printed for the Author, to be had at his Lodgings, No 16 Rose Street.
The books were dedicated respectively to the Hon Miss Elliot and Lady Scott of Ancrum, both members of prominent Borders families, suggesting a connection with that area.
