PARNELL AND IRELAND. Irish, Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composed by one Tom Doyle (credited in Ryan’s Mammoth) in honor of the great Irish nationalist Charles Stewart Parnell [] (1846-1891), who urged tenants not to pay rent in protest of oppression at the hands of landlords. His career was ruined by scandal after it was revealed he was having an affair with a married woman.
