Fr. John Quinn finds that a century later Boston music publisher Elias Howe published a version of "Hoddom Castle" in his '''Musician's Omnibus Nos. 6 & 7''' (1880-1882) set as a dance tune called "[[Noonan's Jig]]." Furthermore, Howe printed the exact same tune forty pages later under the title "[[North's Jig]]."
