DICKEY GOSSIP [2]. AKA and see "Back of the Haggard (1)," "Black's Hornpipe," "Dublin Hornpipe (3) (The)," "Duke's Hornpipe," "Jaunting Car," "Kershaw's Hornpipe," Lady Flashdash Hornpipe," "Lodge Gate (The)," "Loyalist Hornpipe," "Miss Manner's Hornpipe," "Pound Hill." Scottish, Irish; Hornpipe. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The provenance of this tune is not certain, although the earliest printing found is in Edinburgh publisher John Anderson's Anderson's Budget of Strathspeys, Reels & Country Dances (c. 1820). It was published twice in Kerr's Merry Melodies (c. 1880's), with apparent Irish associations; in vol. 2 as "Jaunting Car", and vol. 4 as "Dublin Hornpipe (3) (The)." It also appears in Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883) also as "Jaunting Car." Close versions of the tune were entered into the 19th century music manuscript collections of cleric and uilleann piper biography:James Goodman and County Leitrim piper and fiddler biography:Stephen Grier, and, in Manchester, England, in the large mid-19th century music manuscript collection of biography:John Roose.


Additional notes
Source for notated version : - The hornpipe appears in Church of Ireland cleric James Goodman's mid-19th century manuscripts. Goodman (1828-1896) was an uilleann piper, and an Irish speaker who collected locally in County Cork and elsewhere in Munster. He also obtained tunes from manuscripts and published collections [Shields].
