N:NB-The A part as written was only 7 bars. However, the tune is virtually note for note as that in
N:O’Farrell (Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes, vol. 1), c. 1805; pgs. 26-27, and I have
N:taken the liberty of adding notes from that source to the end of bar 6 and the start of bar 7,
N:to make 8 bars. The 6th bar was originally |ceg cAd| and the 7th bar BGG G2:| with no 8th bar.
