Boring the Leather (2)
BORING THE LEATHER [2] (Tolladh an Leathair). AKA and see "Come with me now," "The Connaughtman [2]," "Down the back Lane," "The Humours of Ayle House," "The Kilfinane Jig," "The Shoemaker's Fancy," "When you go home." Irish, Double Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The jig appears in O'Neill's publication fours times under the titles "Come with me now," "The Humours of Ayle House," "The Kilfinane Jig," and "When you go home," though Breathnach says the key signature is wrong in all of them and sometimes the endings are wrong. Three versions are printed with no name by Petrie (No. 964-6). The "Boring the Leather" name comes from the Goodman Manuscripts.
Source for notated version: piper Willie Clancy/Liam Mac Flannchadha (County Clare, Ireland) [Breathnach].
Printed source: Breathnach (CRÉ I), 1963; No. 6, p. 5 (appears as "Tolladh an Leathair").
