St Brendan The Navigator Feast Day May 16th Ancient Order of Hibernians St Brendan the Navigator Division Mecklenburg County Division # 2 ISSUE # 3 MONTHLY NEWSLETTER VOLUME# 7 March 2015 Our next business meeting is on Tuesday, March 10th at 7:30 PM Holy Spirit Parish Center Denver 2015 Officers Chaplain Father Paul McNulty President Dick Seymour Vice President Lee Madden Secretary Tom Dowd Treasurer Chris O’Keefe Fin. Secretary Ray FitzGerald Standing Committee Joe Dougherty Marshall Sean Ragan Sentinel Ron Haley Past President Ray FitzGereld www.aohmeck2.org "Níor bhris focal maith fiacail riamh." Translation: "A good word never broke a tooth." President’s Message St. Brendan the Navigator Pray for Us St. Patrick Pray for Us Erin go Baugh Brothers, Here we are, the month of St. Patrick, a busy month for our Division. It’s time to proudly display our heritage. If you haven’t been able to participate in or volunteer to help at our events or activities in the past, this is the perfect time to make that extra effort. Keep alert to our e-mails, website and information in this Newsletter to see how you can help. As we approach St. Patrick’s Day, be alert to stores, kiosks, vendors promoting or selling merchandise that defames or disparages the Irish heritage. Typical are t-shirts depicting the Irish as drunkards and the like. Don’t hesitate to complain either in person or in writing to the vendor or the establishment’s management that you find this offensive and politely ask them to discontinue displaying or selling the items. Our big day will be Saturday, March 7th when we’ll be hosting our Fifth Annual Hibernian Dinner & Show celebrating St. Patrick. The event will be at the Msgr. Kerin Parish Center at St. Mark. We have great entertainment lined up and, like last year, there will be a ceili plus a sing along plus several other surprises. We need a strong turnout from our members, their families and friends to ensure the success of the event. In the event that your wife can’t make it to the dinner, consider buying a ticket and try to join us anyway. We always need help during the evening selling 50-50 tickets, helping at the bar and coordinating the servers, etc. and especially help with the clean-up. The price this year is the same as last year, $25 and a special price for children 12 years of age and under ($15). We’ll need help around 3pm in the afternoon to set up the parish hall. This year we will be having a silent auction with several quality items with the biggest item being four (4) tickets to the University of Virginia /Norte Dame football game in Charlottesville, VA. I know that this item will bring in several large bids and hope to have a credit card machine available so you can put your bid on a credit card. On Saturday March 14th, we’ll join other Hibernians from the Sons of Erin and South Carolina in marching in the annual Charlotte St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Brothers should wear khaki slacks and green shirts (Division shirts would be preferable, long or short sleeve). Families are invited and encouraged to march with our group. We’ll begin the day with a 9am Mass for the Hibernians at St. Peter’s Church on North Tryon St. in Charlotte. What better way to start the day than with a Mass in honor of St. Patrick. The parade route is usually around a mile, so you don’t have to be an Olympian to trek the streets of Charlotte. After the march, be sure to visit the Charlotte Goes Green Street Festival, where there will be plenty of food, entertainment and merchandise. Stop by the Sons of Erin AOH division’s booth, where they sell the best corn beef sandwiches around. On the Feast Day of St. Patrick, Tuesday, March 17th, we’ll be celebrating our annual AOH St. Patrick’s Day Mass at Old St. Joseph’s Church in Mt. Holly (2139 Mountain Island Highway/NC 273, at the intersection of Sandy Ford Rd.). The Mass will begin at 10:00 am and we will be joined by our Brother Hibernians from Charlotte and the Ladies AOH Ladies of the Lough Division. Before the Mass we will have a blessing of the grave of the church’s founder and first pastor, Fr. T. J.Cronin, a native of County Cork. Be aware that there are no restroom facilities at the church. St. Joseph’s is the oldest standing Catholic Church in North Carolina and is an historical site. Since the parish is inactive, the Mass of St. Patrick is one of the two or three Masses celebrated there throughout the year. After the Mass we will be heading over to the Family Restaurant in Stanley, a local establishment for food and refreshments. This Mass and the gathering afterwards are open to members and guests. Balloting is now open for you to nominate a Division Brother for the Hibernian of the Year award. We will present the award at our Anniversary Dinner (April 30th), at Jeffries in Mooresville, in a private room upstairs, which will celebrate the sixth anniversary of our Division’s founding. At this dinner we will also have the formal installation of the 2015 officers. Time flies when you’re having fun! Our March business meeting will be on March 10th at Holy Spirit PAC center in Denver. The March social will be a St Patrick’s Day celebration at Brian Fay’s Cork and Cask on March 17, 2015 at 6:30 PM. Many of us have been there before. I’d be remiss if I didn’t remind you that we are now in the season of Lent. Try to increase you spirituality during this period. One example is to participate in the 40 Days for Life peaceful witness at a local abortion mill, where we pray for a change of heart and for the end of abortion. Your parish bulletin will provide you with opportunities. St. Brendan the Navigator, pray for us!

His story was picked up by ABC and FOX news, and a camera crew from CBS paid a visit to his home. He also has a series of interviews lined up with radio programs in Ireland for Monday morning.

    Young Citizen Volunteers 10Th September 1912 the Young Citizen Volunteers

    Young Citizen Volunteers 10th September 1912 The Young Citizen Volunteers Introduction Lance-Corporal Walter Ferguson , aged 24, of 14th Royal Irish Rifles died (according to the website of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission) on 8 July 1916, although the marble tablet erected in All Saints Parish Church, University Street, Belfast, by his sorrowing father states he was ‘killed in action on 1 July 1916’. It seems very probable that he died a slow and possibly painful death from wounds sustained on 1 July and in captivity because he is buried in Caudry Old Communal Cemetery which was then in German-held territory. Walter’s family did not learn of his death immediately. They sought news of him in the Belfast Evening Telegraph of 18 July 1916: No news has been received regarding L’ce Corporal Walter Ferguson (14596) YCVs since before the Big Push and his relatives, who reside at 2 Collingwood Road, Belfast, are very anxious about him and would be grateful for any information. In civil life he was a bookbinder … News from the Front often trickled home agonizingly slowly. For example, the Northern Whig of 27 July 1916 reveals another Belfast family anxious to learn the fate of their son, also a lance-corporal in 14th Royal Irish Rifles and a member of the YCV: Revd John Pollock (St Enoch’s Church), 7 Glandore Park, Antrim Road, will be glad to receive any information regarding his son Lance-corporal Paul G Pollock, scout, Royal Irish Rifles (YCV), B Company, who had engaged in the advance of the Ulster Division on 1st July last, and has been ‘missing’ since that date.

    Belfast Leases, Lord Donegall, and the Incumbered Estates Act, 1849*

    342 Northern Ireland Legal Quarterly [Vol. 56, No. 3] BELFAST LEASES, LORD DONEGALL, AND THE INCUMBERED ESTATES ACT, 1849* C.E.B. Brett Introduction Lawyers, and in particular solicitors, have in the past been notoriously reluctant to part with or destroy deeds, documents, papers and files which ‘might one day come in useful’. For this reason, they have been for centuries invaluable as preservers of archives, especially title-deeds, wills, probates, and court pleadings – more so as most such documents had for centuries been laboriously written out in ink by scriveners on parchment or durable paper. Today, photocopiers, computers, faxes, and emails have generated such enormous problems of storage that practitioners now shred the majority of documents every few years. When, in 1953, as a young solicitor aged twenty-five, I was taken into partnership in the family firm of L’Estrange & Brett by my father and grandfather, problems of storage had already reached uncomfortable proportions. I was the sixth generation; the firm had been founded (as Ramsay & Garrett) in the last years of the eighteenth century. The attics and roof-space (not to mention the narrow but capacious strong-room) of the offices at no. 9 Chichester Street, Belfast, which the firm had occupied since 1886, were packed with piles and boxes of old documents, leaving no room for more. I was told that there had been a mild tidy-up in 1917, for fear of zeppelin raids; and another in 1939, for fear of air raids; but nothing else. To make matters worse still, next door, the basement of no.

    Introduction: Intuition/Image/Event: 'Beckett's Peephole' As Audio

    Notes Introduction: Intuition/Image/Event: ‘Beckett’s Peephole’ as Audio- Visual Rhizome 1. The quote is from Beckett’s The Unnamable. 2. Beckett first outlines this concept in his 1932 novel, Dream of Fair to Middling Women, where the character Belacqua desires to write a book whereby ‘The experience of my reader shall be between the phrases, in the silence, communicated by the intervals, not the terms, of the statement.’ Beckett (1992), p. 138. 3. I will discuss this distinction in Chapter 1. 4. See Uhlmann (1999), specifically chapter 2; (2004), pp. 90–106; and (2006). 1 Thinking the Unthinkable: Time, Cinema and the Incommensurable 1. They could thus be said to be more ‘thallic’ than ‘phallic’, horizontally fugitive rather than vertically hierarchical, molecular rather than molar. On the ‘ thallic’, see Weber (1982), pp. 65–83. 2. The Proustian implications of this temporal multiplicity are obvious, although Proust, like Beckett, is less concerned with duration, the past-present’s ability to ‘move on’ as becoming- future, than with the role of memory as a means of destroying the pernicious influence of habit. His distinction between voluntary and involuntary memory is predicated on a desire to preserve lost time as it survives in itself, the better to regain it for ourselves as art. 3. See Bellour (1977), pp. 66–91; (1986), pp. 66–101. 4. The reference to Wim Wender’s Falsche Bewegung (1975) is not uncoincidental. Wenders is paradigmatic of one aspect of the crystal- image in Cinema 2. See pp. 76–8. 5. For Nietzsche’s eternal return as an affirmation of difference, see Deleuze (1983).

    Filmography V6.Indd

    a filmography Foreword by The Irish Film Institute For over 60 years, the Irish Film Institute has been dedicated to the promotion of film culture in Ireland and therefore is proud to present this filmography of Samuel Beckett’s work. Beckett remains one of Ireland’s most important and influential artists and Samuel Beckett – A Filmography provides a snapshot of the worldwide reach and enduring nature of his creativity. As part of the Beckett centenary celebrations held in April 2006, the Irish Film Institute organised a diverse programme of films relating to the work of Beckett, including a tour of the line-up to cinemas around the country. Prior to this, the Irish Film Institute provided the unique opportunity to view all 19 films in the ‘Beckett on Film’ series by screening the entire selection in February 2001. This filmography provides the perfect accompaniment to these previous programmes and it illustrates that Beckett’s work will continue to be adapted for film and television worldwide for years to come. Photograph by Richard Avedon Samuel Beckett – A Filmography was made possible though the kind support of the Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism and the Beckett Centenary Council and Festival Committee. Mark Mulqueen Director, The Irish Film Institute An Introduction Compiling a filmography of Beckett’s work is both a challenging and daunting prospect. It was important, from the outset, to set some parameters for this filmography. Therefore, to this end, I decided to focus on the key area of direct adaptations of Beckett’s work filmed for cinema or television.

Friedman ____________________________ James N. Loehlin ____________________________ Charles Ramírez Berg Patriarchs, Pugilists, and Peacemakers: Interrogating Masculinity in Irish Film by Joseph Paul Moser, M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin August 2008 For my wife, Jennifer, who has given me love, support, and the freedom to be myself Acknowledgments I owe many people a huge debt for helping me complete this dissertation. Neville Hoad gave me a crash course in critical theory on gender; James Loehlin offered great feedback on the overall structure of the study; and Alan Friedman’s meticulous editing improved my writing immeasurably. I am lucky to have had the opportunity to study with Charles Ramírez Berg, who is as great a teacher and person as he is a scholar. He played a crucial role in shaping the chapters on John Ford and my overall understanding of film narrative, representation, and genre. By the same token, I am fortunate to have worked with Elizabeth Cullingford, who has been a great mentor. Her humility, wit, and generosity, as well as her brilliance and tenacity, have been a continual source of inspiration.
  • Town Records

    Town Records

    CARRICKFERGUS TOWN RECORDS Short Calendar for Researchers A Note to the Reader The following is a descriptive listing of the contents of the volumes held by Carrickfergus Museum pertaining to the town’s records from the eighteenth century on. It is anticipated that it be used as a starting point for researchers wishing to investigate the town’s municipal past; however, it is not suitable as a wholesale replacement for consulting the documents themselves. It is not entirely clear what happened to the earlier material; clearly it existed in some form as Richard (Dean) Dobbs made a copy in 1785, but by 1786 the committee set up for the purpose of compiling an updated catalogue complained they had to rely on the catalogue of 1738, as a number of original documents were ‘lost or mislaid’. (TR/03). However, there does not seem to be much overlap between the reported missing documents (leases etc) and the contents of Dean Dobbs’ Records of Carrickfergus, as copied from the old books of records which is altogether more colourful and can be consulted in typescript at Carrickfergus Library. The concern for the town’s records seen in the 1780s marks a gradual shift towards a professional approach to those same records and indeed to the work of administering the borough as a whole. This trend accelerates throughout the nineteenth century and is demonstrated within the records by references to staff salaries, finances, uniforms, the regularisation of meeting times and locations, and increased concern with the security of items relating to the town’s administration, including valuable objects such as the mace and sword.

    CONNEMARA Galway Vol. XII — No. 144 Spanish Armada Memorial Centre Grange and Armada Development Association Grange, Sligo | Old Courthouse (green doors) At Ireland Ascending we have written extensively about the local, national, and international efforts in recovering the shipwrecks at Streedagh Beach. As Irish American children, myself & my siblings first heard of the ‘legend’ of Armada shipwrecks somewhere off the Sligo coastline — from my county Sligo born immigrant mother, Bridget Hannon (Ó hAnnáin). In 1985, that legend became Fact. In 2015, both siege & ships cannons were raised from the La Juliana (Spain). Resting nearby are the La Lavia (Venice) and the La Santa María de Visón (Sicily), neither of which have yet given up their secrets (all 3 were mediterranean merchant ships pressed into service by King Philip II). The Spanish Armada was not defeated by England, but by a great storm (1588) of the Wild Atlantic Way that carried one ship to Norway and two to Scotland. Ireland’s west coast counties Donegal, Sligo, Mayo, Galway, Clare and Kerry have 28 known Armada shipwrecks — with others further off the coastline deep in the Atlantic.
