'''SMITH'S A GALLANT FIREMAN, THE.''' AKA and see "[[Carrick's Reel]]/Carrack's Reel/[[Carrick's Rant]]," “[[More Luck to Us]],” “[[Riley's Favorite]].” Scottish, Strathspey. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Kerr, Martin, Milne, Skinner): AAB (Skye): ABCD (Hardie). Bill Hardie (1986) remarks the title refers to the days when the village blacksmith would serve the populace not only by his trade, but would be called upon to extinguish fires in the event of an emergency. From "J. Scott Skinner's Set" notes Skinner (1843-1927) himself in '''The Scottish Violinist''' (1900), while Bill Hardie (1986) styles it "After Charles Hardie's Set." A Northumbrian version is known under the title “[[Sir John Fenwick]]," while an Irish variant is called "[[More Luck to Us]]."
