Is this the dance?

A set of 7 dancers, 2 lines of 3 on the sides, #7 in the middle facing up
Bars
1-4 Right hands across, #7 and the top 2 dancers on his/her right.
5-8 Left hands across, #7 and the top 2 dancers on his/her left.
9-12 Right hands across, #7 and the bottom 2 dancers on his/her right.
13-16 Left hands across, #7 and the bottom 2 dancers on his/her left.
17-24 #7 and the middle dancer in each line: reel of three.
To start, #7 passes the middle dancer on
the "men's side" by the left shoulder,
this is the person in front of him/her
in the last wheel. #7 finishes back in the middle.
25-28 #7 and top right hand dancer turn 1,5 times by the right.
29-30 All set.
31-32 Outside dancers chase one place clockwise while new centre dancer
sets.

If so, it was written by someone called Alan W White in 2003 and is a
"Scottish" Country Dance.

Subject: Re: [ECD] Heptathalon, was Elverton Grove


Hi, All--While we're on the subject of Elverton Grove. . . .  I recently had
a chance to dance "Heptathalon," a charming dance for 7 people, which uses
the Elverton Grove tune.  So far my attempts to find out more about the
dance have turned up nothing.  Does anybody know who wrote it?  Does it have
some other dedicated tune?  I'd like to call it, but the thought of using
Elverton Grove's tune doesn't sit well with me.  All I know is that it was
on a Vancouver Ball program some years ago.  Thanks.--Orly (enjoiyng a
rainy, but cool, day in NY)
