What was the plight of the poor Irish people when faced with this famine due to the failure of the potato crop? Men, Women and children died in thousands in their houses and on the roadside. An abundant crop was reaped those years but due to the landlords and English Government it was shipped to England to feed the people of England and the Irish people had to exist on the potato as their staple food. It speaks well for a country which is called non Christian that the Turkish Government were the first to send aid to the stricken Irish people. They sent cargos of Indian corn. But the suffering of the stricken Irish people due to the mismanahement and callous English Government will not be forgotten by the Irish people. of of the nation.
