I really like this one and I love the style in which John Morris played it.

Played by the composer John Morris in the Limehill set on Youtube

The tune is the fourth in the set and appears at 2:51

John Morris Rankin made and named this tune to honour his daughter Molly Rankin.

She was only 12 when John (40) tragically died in a car accident. This tune was played in his funeral:

Brilliant tune by a brilliant fiddler. Thanks for the clip.
