'''BLACK HORSE [1], THE'''. Irish, Hornpipe. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The first strain has similarities with "[[Constitution Hornpipe (1)]]" and "[[Golden Wreath Hornpipe]]," printed in '''Ryan's Mammoth Collection''', and Kerr's '''Merry Melodies''', both of which predate Frank Roche's 1913 collection. The tune presents few of the more typical Irish style characteristics, and may have been imported. Ira Ford's "[[Exhibition March No. 1]]" also has an identical first strain, and a similar second strain.
