Dated from examination of text and style.
The Marble Arch - first line reads: While strolling near the Marble Arch, / One evening in July, / A maiden fair, with golden hair, / Came tripping lightly by, / The lustre of her almond eyes, / Shone o'er me like a torch / And in a whisper, softly said, / Is this the Marble Arch?
The Marble Arch - 'Written, composed and sung by Sam Bagnall'.
O'Donnell Aboo! - first line reads: Proudly the note of trumpet is sounding, / Loudly the war-cries arise on the gale, / Fleetly the steed by Loc Suilig is bounding, / To join the thick squadrons in Saimer's green.
The tune for O'Donnell Abu was composed in the early part of the 19th century by Joseph Haliday, a man from Carrick-on-Suir, Co. Tipperary. He was bandmaster of the Cavan militia. Michael McCann, a young Galway man, added words to the music. The composition first appeared  in 'The Nation' of January, 1843 and was then called 'The Clan Connell War Song'.
