    An Saor Mór (Michael Halloran)
    "Ag áit a chodail me aréir
    Bhí an clampair ann.
    Chí lachain is géanna is guggdal agg
    Bhí an fearthainn anuas
    Trí thóin an tighe mhóir
    Agus níor codail mé néal leis na Sraggeaidí ánn"
    Ag Saor Mór voted at the Election Daniel O Connell versus Fitzgerald at Ennis.It is stated that when he entered the polling station one of the personating agents asked the question -was this vote registered the day before and was met with the response "were you baptised before you were born".
