Moore, complained a frustrated O'Neill, often did not remember the names of the tunes he played ("a very common failing") and was lost track of when he moved to New York in the spring [O'Neill, '''Irish Folk Music''']. | ''Source for notated version'': Tony Smith (County Cavan & Dublin) [Mulvihill]; Francis O'Neill learned the tune from a young Limerick man named James Moore during the winter of 1875.
