X: 1 T:Paddy O'Rafferty. JJo.128 B:J.Jones MS,1801,N.Shrops. N:A grand jig, six parts in all, of the Morgan Rattler variety. N:Key sig. given is G, but it appears to be in C. Part 2 has the last 2 bars missing N:in the MS. I have completed the unresolved line with the part 1&4 ending, but this N:is not necessarily correct. Part 5 sounds better with A2G rather than AG2 but I have N:left it unchanged in this transcription. NeilB.
