"The Funny Mistake", in Gaelic "An Mearbal Cluiteac", also known as "Irish Jig" or
"Sir Phillip McHugh" is an Irish slip jig in 9/8 time and C Major. The parts are played AABB.
The slip jig appears as an untitled "Irish Jigg" in flute player John Clinton's Gems of
Ireland: 200 Airs (1841).
The Irish-born Clinton was a chief musician and instructor at the Royal Academy, London.
It was printed in Clinton's Gems of Ireland: 200 Airs (1841) (as "Irish Jigg"),

R.M. Levey's First Collection of the Dance Music of Ireland (1858) (appears as an untitled
