  1. Lord Leitrim

    Share Share Post
    It was on the end of April in the year 78
    and I hope the youths of Ireland will keep memory of the date. It was in Ohal wood in the County Donegal when the late Lord Leitrim met his sad down fall. King Kead and Makim were driving him in state when the gallant boys of Donegal soon dismounted him from is sate.
