Jolm l?. i\iI'Keon. ~\ccord.~~gto an alicieni quatrain whicl~,sollle years ago, was innny tirnes quoted :- "The Illslermari's Irish is corrcct, but 11c has not the Iruc accent; the i\Iunstermuri's has the true. acccnt but his lrisl~ i.; not correct ; the Leinstertnan has iieitl~er nccurncy nor trui: accent; while the Connaughtn~anhas botl~." Tli ceart gan bias ug an IJltacl~, 'l'J blds gall wart ag an Muirnlm,:ac~~, Ki'l blds nJ wirt ag an Luigliueacl~, Agus td blJs agus cc:~rbug :In gConnaclitt~cll. If this be true, as some grarr~mnria~iuwould 11avc us bclieve, I lliinlr this Society is to be congi~atulutedon tlio fact that as far a; its researches in tlrc direction of larigrtuge go, it has tlie advan- tags ol [being in u central position bct~wnthe lands ot correct diction and corrcct accent. In 1584, Sir John l'wrol, by ailding this counLy to whatj \\.us nl~wdyrecognised as Ulster, crea-Led new geographjcal boun- il:u.ic-s. But his action had no further result tlmn that of effecting wllat was, from his point of view, :L convel~ier~tlegal division. He did not, and could not, touch the unitJy of language-tlle csl'ernul work of the essential u~~it~wl~icl~ 1)ound togetlier the Gaelic- speaking populution of Breffni. And this, to some 'extent, es- plains the fact that the idioms of cspression, wl~icliwxe olwc clothed in our own language, but wl~icltwe can now only tljmlg rrv:cgnige in tlle- garb of the stranger, are, with few exceptions, lie same in our modern Cavan and Leitrim. AIanifest,ly, it would he idle to pretend that all idiomatic, or even a,ll onusl1:11 espres- :;ions, in tlile area with wliic11 this paper de:.tls are. derived from (:aelic sources, wl~et~llcrNorth or West. hIany of tJlicm--late n~odernexpressions especially-are nothing more or I';.ss than imported slang, but the inquirer will be always a.ble to distinguish. 1;ctween those expressions, which are part of th0erlational legacy, nnrl those wl~iol~have reached us from otlier sources. I should like to say that this paper is merely s~lggestivc.. It is ~,ot,iwd does not clain~to be, esht>ust.ive. Atid my filv:;t s~~gp- t'on would be that those ititeresteil in the work of this Soclety during the famine years. They are honestly ard boldly written, and brightened by many peak quotations. No one is obliged to accept the theoritas and speculations; but there is no reason, that we know of, against accepting the facts as far a.s they go. They were carefully gathered and throw much light ou Cavan. If all books are good, though some bether than others; then there can be no gainsaying but the " Highlands " is the best historica,l work dealirg with Breifny. It is now not easy to get. But twenty ycars ago it sold as a " remainder " in Smitlifield Market, Bel- fast, for a very small sum. A correspondent in The I~ish,Book Iiove; (Aug.-Sept., 1921, p. 18) in a reply to one of our members ("P.J.B.") states that Rev.

  • The Story of a House Kevin Casey
    The Story of a House Kevin Casey Everything we know about Nathaniel Clements suggests that he was an archetypal Ascendancy man. Eighteenth century Dublin was a good place in which to be young, rich and of the ruling class. The Treaty of Limerick - the event that marked the beginning of the century as definitively as the Act of Union ended it - provided a minority of the population, the Ascendancy, with status, influence and power. Penal Laws, imposed upon Roman Catholics and Dissenters, made it impossible for them to play an active part in Government or to hold an office under the Crown. Deprived of access to education and burdened with rigorous property restrictions, they lived at, or below, subsistence level, alienated from the ruling class and supporting any agitation that held hope of improving their lot. Visitors to the country were appalled by what they saw: "The poverty of the people as I passed through the country has made my heart ache", wrote Mrs. Delaney, the English wife of an Irish Dean. "I never saw greater appearance of misery." Jonathan Swift provided an even more graphic witness: "There is not an acre of land in Ireland turned to half its advantage", he wrote in 1732, "yet it is better improved than the people .... Whoever travels this country and observes the face of nature, or the faces and habits and dwellings of the natives, will hardly think himself in a land where law, religion or common humanity is professed." For someone like Nathaniel Clements, however, the century offered an amalgam of power and pleasure.

  • Contextual and Historical the Irish for Belturbet: Béal Tairbirt, Meaning "Mouth of the Tairbert’’
    Belturbet Public Art Commission: Contextual and Historical The Irish for Belturbet: Béal Tairbirt, meaning "mouth of the Tairbert’’. It is located on the River Erne, which is linked to the Shannon-Erne Waterway and the River Shannon The Shannon is the longest river in Ireland. The Erne is also connected to the Black Pig’s Dyke. The Erne has long been the main source of commerce for the town. It once contained three ports and was linked to Belfast via the Ulster Canal. It contains many exesting features and connections that are historic record. Today the river and the town of Belturbet is predominantly a tourist destination. The original steering wheel off the Steamship Belturbet is displayed in the main reception area in the Belturbet Railway Centre as a memento to the steamships that sailed the Erne in the 1800s’. The wheel also commerates the connection with the railways. The various vessels carried goods and passengers on a regular service between Belturbet and Enniskillen. On occasions excursions were operated in conjunction with the G.N.R. Railway. Special excursion trains operated from Amian St. Station in Dublin to Belturbet where passengers boarded the steamship at the Quay, downstream of Killconny Bridge. The rope wear marks can still be seen on the bollards. When the Anglo-Normans tried to conquer Cavan in the early 13th century, Walter de Lacy built a motte-and-bailey on Turbet Island, which is situated upstream of Killconny Bridge. The Fort was probably made of wood and it has not survived. However the steep mound of earth where it was built is well preserved.

  • The Representation of Female Claimants Before the Trustees for the Irish Forfeitures, – *
    The Historical Journal, , (), pp. – © Cambridge University Press This is an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/./), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi:./SX THE REPRESENTATION OF FEMALE CLAIMANTS BEFORE THE TRUSTEES FOR THE IRISH FORFEITURES, – * FRANCES NOLAN Maynooth University ABSTRACT. This article examines the rate and nature of female representation before the board of trustees for the forfeited estates in Ireland, established by the Act of Resumption in . The legis- lation was introduced by a discontented English parliament to nullify William III’s grants of forfeited Irish land, which he awarded after victory over James II in the War of the Two Kings (–). The act’s remit extended well beyond the resumption of freehold land, incorporating real property, jud- gements, securities, obligations, debts, and goods and chattels forfeited by outlawed Jacobites. It was also retroactive, as all parties with a legitimate title to a property that predated February were entitled to enter a claim. Using a printed list of , claims submitted to the trustees, this article analyses the commonality of female claimants, considers their economic, social, and marital status, and identifies the legal or equitable basis for their representation before the trustees. In doing so, it examines prenuptial and familial practices in post-Restoration Ireland, underlines the economic importance of marriage and inheritance as means of conveyance, and suggests that women’s and female minors’ successful claims provided a number of Catholic families with a lifeline in the early eighteenth century.
