- The Kiltegan Evictions
The Landlord Hume of Humewood evicted 32 families from their homes on his estate in Kiltegan in 1876 in order to make room for an extension to his demesne. All the people of the district were compelled to draw stones for the erection of the walls. The local priest at Kiltegan Fr. Gogan said he'd forgive anyone on the road if they'd shoot Hume + he composed this poem recited by Hos Ryan aged 70 of Knockananna + recorded Peadan O'Koghuda.
I
On an October morn we wounded the horn
And made no alarm but away we did steal
with courage + faces to see the tide races
And beyond in Kiltegan we all did appear
II
No boys don't be daunted, there's no cannon planted
Have an eye to the Peelers + be on your guard
For they will conspire + on us will fire
Beware of those Fentons from Orange Donard
III
There are only a little set of country lay men
Who carted their neighbour +got leave of their seizure
From the rock eating Hume. Before they have another
Seizure that they may wind their "aisure" forgotten the poor orphans in Coolatten room(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
