DOIRE  CHOLMCILLE  SEIT
	© 2008   Larry E. Taylor
	This set was composed by Frank Roddy of Derry, Ireland.  The set is also known as
	the DERRY SET.
	Swing in waltz hold.
	Gents begin forward on the left foot and ladies begin forward on the right foot.
	Ladies Chain:   With a waist-level hold for all contacts, ladies give right hands in
	the center, dance to and give left hands to the opposite gent (who has danced into
	his partner's position); couples dance around one another (no arch); the ladies
	also chain to home, right-hand-in-right.
	Bar counts (quantities of measures) for patterns are shown in bold.
	The total bar count for each Figure includes an eight-bar introduction of music.
	First side couple is on the left of the first top couple.
	Documentation is based upon a workshop taught by Pat Murphy at
	Toronto, Canada on April 20, 2001.
