I've found it here: http://www.math.mun.ca/%7Ebshawyer/images/music/reel51st.gif
There it has some G# notes, but I play it on a pennywhistle in D, so I play all G's as Gnatural. Sounds OK.

This tune reminds me of one of Scot Skinner's compositions called "The Queen's Welcome to Invercauld."

I play a very scottish pipe version of this tune called "Atholl highlanders farewell to Loch Katerine". It's a skinner tune alright.

March For Didace
"The Athole Highlanders' Farewell to Loch Katrine" was composed by W Rose, and is not the same tune as the one posted here.
"The Queen's Welcome to Invercauld" is indeed a James Scott Skinner composition, and can be seen and heard here:

There is a passing resemblance.
