Additional notes
Source for notated version : - "Walsh" [O'Neill]. Patrolman William Walsh was one of the Irish emigree musicians recruited by O'Neill for the Chicago Police force. O'Neill had high regard for this musicianship, as he expressed in Irish Folk Music: A Fascinating Hobby (1910, p. 43):

"Willy" Walsh, a native of Connemara, County Galway, was and is a rare musical genius. Self-taught from printed music appropriate to the instrument, he became an accomplished "Highland" piper and toured the country with Sells Brothers' circus one season. He next turned his attention to the fiddle, but wind instruments being more to his liking, he chose the flute, on which difficult keyed instrument he became quite expert. For his own personal use he has compiled a large volume of selections, principally from O'Neill's Music of Ireland, but transposed to the Highland pipe scale, which, by the way, differs from that of all other musical instruments.



Printed sources : - O'Neill (Dance Music of Ireland: 1001 Gems), 1907; No. 88, p. 30. O'Neill (Music of Ireland: 1850 Melodies), 1903; No. 823, p. 153.
