''Mike Sullivan, a man from Kilcummin, a fairly old heavy lad, ''
''a great set dancer, he walked up and came out with that hornpipe,'' 
''we never had it heard. Denis held at it till he got it and I got it ''
''from Denis then and 'Mike Sullivan's' we called it. He usen't ''
''to play at all but he had every tune under the rising sun in his head.''  [Moylan].
