MISS CASEY [1] (Ingean Uí Catasaig). AKA and see "Fairhaired Boy (1) (The)," "Buachaillín Bán (1) (An)." Irish, Double Jig. A Dorian (O’Neill): E Dorian (Miller, O’Brien). Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (O’Brien): AABB (Miller): AABB' (O’Neill). A very similar tune, and possibly ancestral to, “Orphan (2) (The)” (played in E dorian), or both may be a development of “Star of the County Down” and Bayard’s protean “Lazarus” group. The key is given in the book in A major, a misprint. See also the 6/8 air setting (also printed by O'Neill) "When Erin First Rose."

Source for notated version: "Ennis" [O’Neill]. From Patrolman John Ennis, of the Chicago police department.
