N:”Professor” Patrick Reidy of Castleisland was a dancing
N:master engaged by the Gaelic League in London to teach
N:dance classes. He introduced “Siege of Ennis” and “Walls
N:of Limerick” ceili dances and wrote a treatise on dancing.
N:Reidy told O’Neill that his source, Shanahan was a “celebrated
N:violinist”, the son of a piper born in Kilrush, Co. Clare, with a
N:great reputation in Kerry and Limerick in the 1860’s. It is unclear
N:where Shanahan was in relation to his acquaintance with Reidy
N:(i.e. in London or Ireland).
