I will now consider the scribe/compiler of Pothis (breviaries) and Granths known as Bhai Shia(n) Singh. In my research on the Granth of Guru Gobind Singh (Sri Dasam Granth Sahib)[2] his name appears several times but in fact little is known about him. Using a few anecdotes I will piece together a short history of Bhai Shia Singh.
