CUTTY'S WEDDING [2]. Scottish, Irish; Strathspey or Reel. A Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Milne): AABB (Galwey). Honoria Galway (correctly) thought the tune's provenance might have been Scotch ("Scotch Reel?"). The melody is a simplified version of "Cutty's Wedding (1)."
Source for notated version: "I found this in an old 18th century music book" [Galwey].
