Portadown is an old tune. You will find a midi and abc at this address. http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/5567/ooooo2.html#port You will remember that the song remembers a terrible act of violence brought upon Protestants by CATHOLICS.

While one may say that it is a protestant song one would be neglectful if one did not realize that the tragedy was in any accounting an act of inhumanity and that the rememberance of the suffering of the victims can be neither Catholic nor Protestant.
