AKA and see “Brighton Hornpipe,” “Duke of Leinster (3) (The),” “Five Pound Note (The),” “Hennessey's Hornpipe (1),” "Kildare Hornpipe (2)," “O'Neill's Hornpipe (1),” “Peggy Morrissey,” “Strip of Turf (The) (Ciumhais na Móna),” “Wexford Hornpipe.” Irish, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune was a popular hornpipe and frequently recorded in the first half of the 20th century, albeit under a bewildering variety of titles. Accordion player P.J. Conlon (1885–1954) recorded the tune as "Hennessy's/Hennessey's Hornpipe (1)" in 1921, while County Sligo fiddler Michael Coleman [1] (1891–1945) waxed it as "O'Neill's Hornpipe (1)." Uilleann pipers generally know the tune under the title "Wexford Hornpipe," the name by which influential piper Leo Rowsome [2] (1903–1970) recorded it in a medley sandwiched between "Rights of Man (The)" and "Dunphy's Hornpipe." Rowsome's family hailed from Wexford. In 1926 piper Liam Walsh and fiddler J. O'Mahoney recorded the hornpipe as "Cork Hornpipe" [3], although that title generally is used for the tune familiar to most modern session musicians as "Harvest Home (1)."
