Subject: Lord Inchiquin info pls
Does anyone know about Lord Inchiquin, for whom Carolan wrote a tune? I seem to remember I knew once, and that he was a Protestant land baron who 'did his bit' to wipe out the local Catholics. For this reason, though I loved the tune, I couldn't bring myself to learn it to play. However, I now have nothing on him I can play my hands on. Is my memeory playing tricks on me? Information, please.
