KITTY LOSTY'S REEL (Seisd/Cor Caitin Ni Losglaide). AKA and see "Queen of May (2)." Irish, Reel. E Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (O'Neill/1850): AABB' (O'Neill/Krassen). The second strain of the tune is almost exactly note-for-note the same as the second strain of "Tap Room (The)" (a member of the "Hopetoun House" family of tunes) though the first strains have little in common.

Source for notated version: Chicago police patrolman, piper and flute player John Ennis, originally from County Kildare [O'Neill].
