I think it's Jocelyn's Tree by Tommy Peoples:

~ named for a Portland fiddler who lived in Clare for awhile and took lessons from Tommy Peoples - she'd ride her bike up to his house and the tree she used to prop up the bike became known as Jocelyn's tree..

Tommy also plays it as a slow air on his classic CD, "The Quiet Glen" which contains a lot more of his compositions.
