O'Sullivan (1983) calls it a variant of "Whish the Cat from under the Table," ascribed to the 18th century piper Walker 'Piper' Jackson (1716-1798) from the townland of Lisduan in the parish of Ballingarry, Aughrim, County Limerick. Jackson was mentioned in Ferrar's History of Limerick (A. Watson & Co., Limerick, 1787): Walker Jackson is a native of the County of Limerick and a good musician, who has composed a number of excellent pieces of music, ''which are much admired for their harmony and expression. The most favoured of Mr. Jackson's compositions are: Jackson's Morning Brush: the Turret: the Humours of Castle Jackson: Jackson's Ramble: Roving Blade and the Cream of the Jest.'' "Huish the Cat" is the title collector Edward Bunting gave to the melody in his third collection (and appears in his index as "Hush the Cat"), while Stanfrod/Petrie has it as "Pis ar an Iarta" (Peas on the Hearth). See also the related tunes "Bill Harte's Jig," "Bímíd ag Ól (1)," "Foxy Mary (1)" (the first part). "Whish, Cat from under the Table," "Huish the Cat," "Hush the Cat."
