The wonderful net of intrigue by which all this was contrived has been carefully unravelled by Mr. llealy with a pertinaceous ingenuity worthy of Sherlock -Holmes." Morning I'ost. " Mr. Ilealy has accomi)lished a difficult task with considerable success. The result of his labours is an absorbing book. The author has succeeded in weaving a ivjmantic story out of the dry material of official records and legal documents." Athcnceum. " The story that Mr. Healy tells has something of the flavour of historical romance. Mr. Ilealy's method of argument on the main issue is calm and temperate. ... A wonderful effort in legal and historical research." London Daily Telegraph. " It is a truism that only the busiest men have any time to spare, and it is proved again by the publication of an elaborate historical study by Mr. T. M. Healy, the famous Irish M.P., who is as entertaining and brilliant with his pen as he is in speech. Mr. Healy tells his story with enthusiasm and thoroughness." London Express. " Mr. Healy is a lawyer of original genius who, almost more frequently than any other man of his time, has performed the unexpected. He has - done so once again in this extraordinary book, which tells, with many —ctouches of eloquence and here and there a characteristic sting, the tangled - story of a legal dispute. ... A work of argument and legal history j written with sustained eloquence and frequent felicity. ... A task which only a passionate sense of duty and determined doggedness oould have achieved. As the author in his picturesque manner puts it, the Bcent was often stale, but despite the difficulties and uncertainties that confronted him, he has achieved what he sought, and presents the result to the expert and the curious." Outlook (London). " t Mr Healy constructs a story of remarkable interest. By dipping into - ; it here and there some instructive glimpses will be obtained of the ^^, fashion in which Irish history was made in bygone centuries." O'j/eriir =» (London). " It exhibits vividly enough some of the less favourable aspects of past Irish administration, and it will serve the writer's purpose of stimulating a considerable amount of sympathy for the standpoint of his ci contentions."—Pa/^ Mall Gazette. 5C0029 — — —— —— — — — — " Those who love to extract information from Blue Books will revel task to in ttis volume of etrange facts. ... It would be a needless «xp€nd words of praise upon this fair-minded volume, prepared by one of the subtlest intellects of our time."—Beview of Beviews. " ' Stolen Waters ' has to be welcomed as a monument of disinterested vivid, yet archaic, style; at all manner advocacy. Mr. Healy's of odd points the unusual word flashes out at you, and relieves the gloom of technical narration."— TrufA. is congratulated on "Of the utmost value. Mr. Healy to be the manner in which he has fulfilled this •work."—Tablet. " A notable volume, ' Stolen Waters.' The book, which was noticed at length in the leader columns of this paper, is a monument of patient research." Manchester Ouardian. " A series of remarkalile investigations. The book has every appearance of minute afcuiuty in detail, and gives proof of a remarkable skill in marshalling evidence. We shall be surprised if his conclusions are successfully challenged." Glasgow Herald. " It is a tribute to the skill of Mr. Healy that he has made so interesting a narrative out of a record of legal chicanery. As told by him, the history of the title in the seventeenth century is an amazing story of fraud in high places." Scotsman. " Written in the pungent style of which Mr. Healy is so great a master, the book is eminently readable throughout. This erudite and eloquent volume." Dundee Advertiser. " Mr. Healy contriliules to Irish literature a valuable volume." Sheffield Independent. " Elaborate in its tliorough investigation of the historical side. Mr. Healy's book is a formidable impeachment of one more chapter in the horrid story of English mis-government in Ireland." Yorkshire Observer. " Mr. Healy has written a very elalwrate treatise. ... Is, indeed, a most scholarly essay, the result of exhaustive research." Yorkshire Post. " It is e\'idently the result of a wonderful amount of labour in delving among official and legal records, and the student of Irish affairs will find that the author has collected a mass of matter not to be found elsewhere except at the cost of much trouble." Nottingham Ouardian. " Learned and comprehensive as it is, the book is most interesting throughout." Belfast Xews-Letter. " The book is a monument of the sort of painstaking industry that moet orators shirk in favour of easier-won bravura effects. ' Stolen Waters * is less a fiery philippic than a sober historieo-legal study of a phase of Irish history, a solid piece of researcli work of which we have had all too little in this country. Mr. Healy is a formidable tracker, combining the pertinacity of the Red Indian with the ingenuity of Sherlock Holmes. Even the layman must realise the patient and laborious scholarship that has gone to the making of this bock, and cannot fail to be impressed by his power of marshalling great unwieldy masses of facts and the subtlety and dexterity of his analysis. ... It abounds in strange contrasts and dramatic surprises, unravels a tangled tale of corruption and chicanery that might tave inspired a score of novels of ititrigue, and links up in a startling fashion the events of three hundred years ago with the happenings of the day before yesterday." Northern Whig. — — — — — "The compiling of Mr. Ilealy's book was about as hard and as bo delve into distasteful work as any historian could undertake. He had the day records and wade through .State papers practically untouched since he to piece them they were written. And when the facts were revealed had together the way one would reconstruct a jig-saw puzzle. All this infinite with its wealth toil and trouble has been faced. ... Mr. Ilealy's book, the Plantation of historical lore and its fascinating if grim tale of the way of Ulster was carried."— r^i^er Guardian (Belfatt). " Mr. Ilealy's i-emarkable book."—/r(«A Independent. " One of the most valuable practical contributions ever made to the as-yet-unwritten history of Ireland. ... He has done more than any man since Lecky to furnish the Irish Gibbon of the future with new light <jii the most ot)«cure problems of the Ulster Plantation. As a mere collection of quotations he would have produced a book of enthralling interest. The coiinectiiig narrative in which he strings them together is wortliy of Mr. Healy's clear-cut, caustic, and vigorous English at its best. Indeed, his style seems to have caught a new charm of Old Testament austerity. The book will lie a Memoire pour Servir of the highest service to the students of Irish history."—C'orA; Free I'rest. " Mr. Ilealy has taken much trouble in using the original documents. A great wealth of evidence, giving careful reference." Church of Ireland Gazette. " Full digestion of its contents leads one to the conclusion that, if nut a novel, it is at least a good deal more interesting than many such pieces of literature. The erudite and witty pages of Mr. Healy. The many sidelights thrown on history by the painstaking researches of the author." Journal of the Ivernian Society. " The story Mr. llealj-'s valuable work tells, and tells well. No one wJio peruses the work—no matter what judgment he may form ufxm the argument it contains—will be likely to lay it down without an expression of admiration fgr the almost marvellous abilitj- and industry which have been devoted to its production. The preparation of the volume must have involved an enormous amount of labour and research. In France it would be crowned by the Academy." The Irish Catholic. " Mr. Ilealy's most interesting book.

However, ponds are also vulnerable to environmental degradation and there is evidence that, at a national level, pond quality is declining. In 2007, the biodiversity importance of ponds was recognised when high quality ponds (Priority Ponds) were added to the list of UK Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) Priority Habitats.

  • Belfast Group Poetry|Networks : Essays
    Croxall and Koeser • 2015 Belfast Group Poetry|Networks What Do We Mean When We Say “Belfast Group”? Brian Croxall [email protected] http://orcid.org/0000-0001-5602-6830 Rebecca Sutton Koeser [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8762-8057 June 2015 https://belfastgroup.ecds.emory.edu/essays/#what This essay was peer reviewed by Geraldine Higgins and Nathan Suhr-Sytsma . In creating a project to investigate the relationships among members of the Belfast Group, it is important to know exactly what that Group is. Being specific about this when creating our data was critical so we could accurately measure who was connected to this thing we call “the Belfast Group.” But, as often happens with humanities data, it turns out that things are a little messy. In this case, while the term originally refers to the writing workshop begun by Philip Hobsbaum, many critics and commentators have also used it to refer to the idea of a Belfast “school” of poets (see Clark 1, 6). Many members of this supposed school—Seamus Heaney and Michael Longley, among others—were, of course, participants in the writing workshop, which adds to the slippage between the two uses. But while it is demonstrably true that a writing workshop existed, it is less clear whether there was any unified purpose that might constitute a school; as Norman Dugdale put it, the “The Group had no manifesto, no corporate identity, no programme beyond providing a forum in which writers […] could produce their wares and have them discussed” (Dugdale et al.

  • Barge 1 Lagan Waterway and History
    LAGAN WATERWAY HISTORY Navigable waterways Prior to the advent of canals and railways in the 1700s and 1800s, packhorses and horses and carts or packhorse were the main means of moving stuff. Although Ireland has had a good road network since the 1600s, such roads were poorly surfaced and not always well maintained. The loads transported were thus limited by the hauling power of the horses and condition of the roads. Bulky, low-value goods such as coal, building materials and grain were particularly expensive to transport. Railways solved this problem, but only after the development of reliable steam locomotives in the mid-1800s. Before then, rivers were the cheapest way of moving large heavy loads where speed was not essential. Except for their tidal sections however, most rivers were not navigable for any great distance and the size of boats, and thus of the loads carried, was invariably limited by obstructions such as shallows, rapids and weirs. Navigations and canals Navigable waterways are of two types – navigations and canals. Navigations are existing natural watercourses whose navigability has been improved, whereas canals are entirely artificial channels excavated by hand and/or machine. The pros and cons of each type of waterway are as follows: For Against Navigations No major civil engineering works Prone to strong currents in winter and required so relatively cheap. lack of water in summer, both of which may make navigation temporarily impossible. [This was certainly the case on the Lagan] Summer water shortages are potentially exacerbated by demands of mill owners with prior rights to abstract water from the river.

  • The Death and Funeral of Edward Carson
    The death and funeral of Edward Carson Edward Carson had contracted bronchial pneumonia in June 1935 but by July he was out of danger. During this period Dr Charles D’Arcy, the Church of Ireland Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland, paid a visit to see his fellow Dubliner. Carson confided to the Primate, ‘I have seen much to shake my faith and what remains with me is no more than I learned at my mother’s knee: “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son …”’. The Archbishop assured Ned, his old friend, that John 3:16 was ‘enough’. While Carson recovered, his health was nevertheless fatally weakened. By the early autumn his strength began to ebb away and at 8:00 on the morning of 22 October 1935 at Cleve Court, a Queen Anne house in the Isle of Thanet, Kent, Carson died. Carson had left no instructions in his will as to where he wished to be buried but in conversation with Lord Craigavon (as Sir James Craig had become in 1927) he had expressed a desire to be buried in the land, in Craigavon’s words, for which ‘he fought so long, so valiantly and so successfully’. In a broadcast the Prime Minister announced that the Northern Ireland Government would provide a state funeral and that Carson would be buried St Anne’s Cathedral. Craigavon introduced special legislation in the Northern Ireland House of Commons to enable the burial to take place in the Cathedral. The legislation passed through all its stages there and in the Senate in one sitting.
