C#s?

In that case slainte I presume those Cs are meant to be sharps - yes?

Yeah, that's what I thought. Jack, please add more info on this tune for us, especially who J. O'Sullivan got it from.

The first part seems to be a variation of the Lannigan's Ball Jig

Further Info.

Jerry got the tune from Seamus Connelly a fiddle player. Apparently Francis Mooney was the Grandson of the great Capt Francis O'Neil. It is transcribed in O'Neils in G Major.
