Source: John McFadden in O’Neill’s Music of Ireland1
Appears in the ‘Marches and Miscellaneous’ section of Music of Ireland. Possibly a composition of McFadden’s2. An altogether different tune with this title appears in DMI3. O’Neill’s account of McFadden from Irish Minstrels and Musicians can be found here.
