Dear Iain,
could you please assure, whether the composer of the tunes is really “Leslie Cummings” and not “A. Leslie Cumming”, who is noted down as the deviser of the dance, but would be missing an ‘s’ at the end.
The spelling of the official title has been corrected (but I kept the mis-spelling as an alias).
Best, Heiko

According to Iain, deviser and tune composer should be the same. To check whether Cumming or Cummings is correct, I did an additional search: The Scottish Dance Archive lists the deviser as “A Leslie Cumming”.
Thus, I assigned the tunes to the already existing person and close the issue.
Thanks to Iain, Heiko
