- The following verse was written by Michael Duinne of Ceaherhennessy, Ballingarry, and forwarded to friends in America who were also natives of Ballingarry and were anxious to get news of their beloved district. He was assistant teacher in Ballingarry boys National school about fifteen years ago. He is still living and is book - keeping in Newcastle West, Co Limerick. He has never written verse since. He has great taste for landscape painting. He is often called on to prepare picture screens for Local dramas.
