“Somewhere about Athlacca, Dromin parish there was a poet named O' Donnell in the middle of the last century.”
Somewhere about Athlacca, Dromin Parish, there was a poet named O'Donnell in the middle of the last century. He wrote a good many songs all of which were set to native airs. I have not been able to collect any of them, but I have learned that the Rev. C. O'Sullivan, c.c. Bruff has made a painstaking effort to secure all or as many of his songs, as have survived.
