MILLER'S MAID [2], THE (Aindear an Muilleoir). Irish, Air (4/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. This tune shares a resemblance to several others in the first half; "Lass of Patie's Mill (The)," "Boatie Rows (The)," "Duke of Buccleuch (1) (The)," "Carolan's Cup," and others--although the resemblance does not imply a relationship.

Source for notated version: "O'Neill" [O'Neill]. Chicago Police Sergeant and fiddler James O'Neill was originally from County Down. He served as Francis O'Neill's transcriber and collaborator on his early volumes.
