Description	Jean Thomas (seated, center, with a typewriter on her lap) shares her 1938 book about Jilson Setters, "The singin' fiddler of Lost Hope Hollow" with a man and woman seated on the ground outside her brick "Wee House in the Wood" in Ashland, Kentucky. The original caption read "Tom Scott, Chesterfield Hour, Fred Waring's." Tom Scott was a Kentucky folk singer and composer who performed with Fred Waring's Pennsylvanians on the Chesterfield Hour radio program.
