'''BEL(L)FAST ALLMANACK (ALMANAC), THE'''. AKA and see "[[Bob in the Bed]]," &quot;[[Planxty Connor]],&quot; &quot;[[John O'Connor]],&quot; &quot;[[Planxty Mrs. O'Connor]].&quot; Scottish, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Gow): AABBCC (Athole). Gow notes the melody is &quot;A Favorite Irish Air,&quot; and indeed, it originally was a composition of Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan's called &quot;John O'Connor.&quot; The name Belfast means 'crossing place by a sandbank'. The almanac was a long-running publication quite popular in its day, stemming from the mid-18th century. Like the modern-day '''Farmer's Almanac''', the '''Belfast Almanac''' contained a wide variety of calendars, weather forecasts, advice, instructions, stories and various and sundry other items.
