   There was at this time military barracks in the town of Dunmore. (burned down about the year 1918 by the J. K. A)

   The military, a gay party, gave on one Sunday night a Ball to which they invited a fashionable crowd.

   Every Fenian in the town and throughout the parish of Dunmore was like a 'live wire' this night on which the dance was held.

   The Ball appeared a great success_ the Ball room was brilliantly lighted, A military and fashionable crow danced to good music, having no suspicion that any thing was a foot.
