"Rollo," the name Ives called musicians unwilling to listen to advanced dissonances and other techniques found in modern music, was derived from a character in books (1834--1858) by Reverend Jacob Abbott. Rollo could understand only the simplest of situations that had been taught or had been explained to him in great detail. Original publishers include Boston, MA: Weeks, Jordan, and Company; Philadelphia, PA: Hogan & Thompson; Boston, MA: Gould, Kendall & Lincoln.
