N: "Hugh Smith, originally from Cavan, was head of CCE North America
N: and fought a long hard struggle against a terrible illness. I had
N: composed this tune to cheer him up a little, but unfortunately
N: never had the chance to get it to him before he passed away. His
N: brother Tony performed this tune at the 1999 CCE North American
N: Convention, and everyone is sure that Hugh would have liked it.
N: Ar dheis D a raibh a h-anam."
