Blarneagh
About thirty years ago a young boy from Crusheen was on his way to Tulla and he was mysteriously brought into a magnificent dancing hall in Blarneagh. Great crowds of ladies of ladies and gentlemen were there.They had a lovely musical band,and in this band there was a Miss Polan who was so fascinating that she stole the heart of the boy from Crusheen. he danced all night with her.They were all highly entertained .He of
(one) times called it after the one and only night of his life.When day-break came he found himself all alone on the lovely hill of Blarneagh .Never could he account for how this glorified well-carried-on ball came to an end.
With the hope of making her his wife he made inquiries everywhere
for Miss Polan,thinking she was a captive like himself,and finally he was told that she died premature some five or six years ago,and needless to say how he felt. - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
