Uncle DaveO, I was speculating whether there might be a preceding song "Whiskey In the Jar" from which "Kilgarry Mountain" later drew part or all of its chorus. I think that's a serious possibility.

Lighter, thanks for that reference. I'll have to wait till I can get on another computer. For some reason I'm unable to access the Bodleian from this one. I'm eagerly looking forward to seeing that broadside.
