A very similar tune, but crooked, was played by Jean-Baptiste April, a fiddler from Notre-Dame-du-Portage, Quebec, recorded by Marius Barbeau on wax cylinder in 1918. April gave it the title "Casse-Reel", which suggest a Scottish origin of the tune. Here is the abc notation: X:24 T: 24. Casse-Reel M: 2/2 L: 1/8 C: Jean-Baptiste April / 1918 K: D "A"d2fd adfd | cdef gbec |d2fd Adfd | cdBd cBAc | ! d2fd adfd | cdef gbec | dcdA BAGF | M: 3/2
