A composition by Brendan Mulvihill (I hope he doesn't mind me posting it). I transcribed it from his playing where he pairs it with Cock and the Hen:

(My version of it in the comments.)

Both tunes have a nice non-symmetrical rhythm to them; I think of them as anti-slip-jig slip jigs. Quite a good set!

So this was named in honor of fiddle player Eugene O'Donnell, was it?

I don't know for sure, but it's likely...there are a few tunes named for him.
