CAHILL'S WORKSHOP (Ceardca Uí Catail). Irish, Single Jig. A Minor/G Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. The title probably refers to Chicago police Sergeant and uilleann piper James Cahill, a member of O'Neill's Irish Music Club in Chicago at the turn of the 20th century and a contributor of tunes to the O'Neill volumes. O'Neill writes of his skill not only with his musicality, but with his advocation [1]:

Sergeant Cahill, unassuming as he was, possessed many quaint tunes from County Kildare, where he was born, and besides being an Irish piper, he was an expert wood-turner. In a shop in the basement of his residence he made many chanters equal to Taylor's work in tone and finish. Even as a reed-maker he had few equals, and what was still better, his liberality and assistance were never appealed to in vain.

Chicago Irish Music Club, c. 1901-1909. Sgt. Cahill is seated in the first row, 2nd from the right.

See also "Sergeant Cahill's Favorite" for another Cahill tune.
