A Correction Re: [Sca-cooks] 'shillelagh law'

Right, I didn't make it clear it was an older song, the Rovers and Clancy
Brothers and others, did like AP Carter did before them, they took older
songs and made them more fun, to listen to in many cases.   Brennan on the
Wild Moor sounds in the orginal version like a funeral durge.  The rewrite
is an upbeat fun song great for a pub sing.
