Thread Name: Folklore: Cape Breton ceildh dance - name?
Subject: Folklore: Cape Breton ceildh dance - name?
A recent question on dances and their history prompted my memory of someone mentioning a story about a lost dance found at a Cape Breton Sat evening dance.

The dance was known by name only from references in documentation of Ireland but the precise sequence was lost until.......

Someone went to a ceilidh on Cape Breton and found it had been danced since memories began there.

Now, can anyone recognise the story and the name of the dance AND where to get the instructions?

this is for my curiosity, the general e-mail community on E-celidh and the webmeister at Webfeet

TIA
