[A] According to one source, Propheter's publishing business was founded on Davis's talent.[5]
[B] His profile was low enough, however, that some who saw only his name mistook him for a woman.[6]
[C] It is not clear how much Davis profited directly from this composition; some sources say he sold it for a bargain, others that he was fairly compensated.[9]
[D] Not the Bluegrass classic, but a different song.[10]
