CONSIDINE'S GROVE{S} ("Tor-Cpoille Ui Constantin" or "Rot-Coille Ui Consaidiun"). AKA and see "Cronin of Kerry," "Dinny Ryan's," "Game of Love (The)," "Girls of Farranfore (The)," "Gneevguilla Reel (The)," "Miss Brady," "Paddy Cronin's Reel (2)," "Pride of Rathmore," "Rabbit's Burrow."

Source for notated version: "Cronin" [O'Neill]. Referring to Chicago fiddler Edward Cronin (1838-1908?), originally from Limerick Junction, County Tipperary. Cronin was a weaver by trade but found no employment for his craft after emigrating to Troy, New York. Taking any job he could, Cronin eventually made his way to Chicago. O'Neill valued him for his vast repertoire and impeccable skill as a dance musician, but also thought him a suspicious man at the core, who had considerable difficulty maintaining relationships for any long period. O'Neill transcribed tunes from him in weekly visits for some two years, before some perceived slight made Cronin turn on him.
