Notes

translation of note by Breathnach: Mr. Brogan got this from piper Willie Clancy. It was first published by Petrie as "The Catholic Boys" (P i [The Ancient Music of Ireland], p.144). He got it from the Lord Chief Baron of Ireland on 15 January 1852. Petrie said that the old Irish name was lost but this was the name that Clancy had on it. Stanford did not bother giving any name to it (P iii [The Complete Collection of Irish Music as noted by George Petrie], 282. Roche also calls it "The Catholic Boys" in a setting which is almost identical to Petrie's (R iii [Collection of Irish Airs, Marches and Dance Tunes, vol. III], 91.
