 CARRICKFERGUS [1]. AKA and see "Haste to the Wedding (1)." Irish, Jig. Carrick = rock. The melody, well-known under the title "Haste to the Wedding," was printed by Brysson in his A Curious Selection of Favourite Tunes with Variations to which is appended "Fifty Favourite Irish Airs" (Edinburgh, 1790). Two similar versions appear in the Scottish Gillespie Manuscript of 1768--one version is called a "new set," while another is labelled an "Irish reel."
