Donal O'Sullivan in his book Carolan says that this tune "may be" by Carolan. He says "....The principal Parsons family in Ireland is that of the Earl of Rosse at Birr.... but Birr is outside Carolan's district, and if the tune was composed by him the subject is probably William Parsons of Garadice, County Leitrim. Garadice House stood on the shore of the pretty lake of that name......Carolan must have known the squire, because he would pass through Garadice on his way home to Mohill from the Maguires of Tempo. William Parsons died on the 29th March 1730."
