I noticed that you mentioned Tim Finnegan, the hod carrier who fell from the ladder while drunk.
James Joyce also refers to left-handed in the "Circe" chapter of Ulysses with "Kithogue", Anglicized Irish for a left-handed and thus considered an unlucky person.
"Cithogue" is repeated on page 91 of Joyce's  Finnegans Wake where it refers to the Roman Catholic priest as he lifts his hand during the Mass.
