Jim Saxe pointed out to me (Thanks JIm) that I made a mistake in my comment
below. The beginning of Fairport Harbor is also a little different from you
proposed dance. In Fairport Harbor, the promenade occurs immediately after the
men's allemande, instead of having a swing there. Also, the neighbor swing is
preceded by a gypsy.

It''s also very close to Fairport Harbor by Paul Balliet. The only difference is
a few counts of the Bs:
B1: Promenade home
Ladies chain to partner
B2: Pass thru across set
Partner swing

Hi Luke and all,
This is strongly reminiscent of Gene Hubert's Gang of Four, but I think yours
is distinct.
