NINE POINTS OF KNAVERY. Irish, Reel. A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The only appearance of this tune is in the Forde Collection, a portion of which was published by P.W. Joyce. William Forde (c. 1759-1850) was a distinguished musician from County Cork, who collected primarily in Munster, but also from trips made to 19th century County Leitrim, Sligo, Galway, Roscommon and Mayo. Forde collected "Nine Points of Knavery" from James Blair, who was at the time a stipendiary magistrate in Ballinamore, County Leitrim, although he was originally from County Armagh. The reel appears to be a distanced member of the "Queen of May (2) (The)" and "Tap Room (The)" tune family. See also the similarly-titled (but musically different) "Nine Points of Roguery (The)" and the musically similar Scottish tune "Nine Pint Coggie (2)." The Irish title "Nine Points of Knavery" may be a miss-hearing of "Nine Pint Coggie."
