   Foremost in the ranks of those who took an active part in every movement for their independence of their native country as well as for termination of landlordism here were the people of my district. Staunch Fenians, Home Rulers, Landleaguers were to be found in every townland and in the recent struggle for self government they played no mean part.
   Their land was their life and when Tenant League was formed it is not surprising that the organisation had strong supporters in this district. The land was their sole means of living and nearly all of them had uneconomic holdings and for these they were forced to pay rack rents and in their midst was a large ranch containing some hundreds of acres and the best land in the county. Over these broad acres roamed the cattle and sheep of an absentee landlord and when their cry "Pay no Rent" was raised, threats of imprisonment and even eviction did not deter them from their purpose.
