“Its the latest tale in History I mean to let you know...”
(continued from previous page)England through our country night and day. For to put down that so called murder gang the gallant I.R.A.
But the planters now are on the run for England
For England was their guide
They are all aware the rebel Bear will banish Cromwells pride
- A long time ago there lived in Weaver Street three weavers namely John Melia, Peter Marshal, and James Conor. These people used to weave flax into linen. The people around used buy this linen at about 7 per yard and out of this linen they used to make sheets, shirts, and towels. About forty years there lived in Cloghan two carpenters namely Patrick Craven and Pat Loonam. About sixty years ago there lived in coghan two blacksmits, their names were Jim Mulhare & Jimmie Carroll.
