LADIES FANCY [2]. AKA and see "Yellow Wattle (1) (The)," "Ladies Walking Stick (The)." Irish, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. O'Neill (1922) remarks: "This jig, a variant of the much more diversified 'Yellow Wattle' No.353 in O'Neill's Dance Music of Ireland, was sent to me by Prof. P.D. Reilly, a famous dancing master of "London and Castle Island", with the notation: This simple jig was a noted favorite among the two last generations, and quite good enough for the present when well played."
