“James McLaughlin has written a very long poem entitled the 'Romance of Con Tinney'.”
(continued from previous page)IX
Her father might object to him
Her mother might persuade
Tis true he was a Roman
And a weaver too by trade
She knew she'd lose her portion
Three thousand pounds, nay more
She'd be disowned - yet love for Conn
Such trifles overbore. XI
About the time a landlord's son
Who lived near Ballintra
Was captain of the Yeomanry
Then stationed at Ardstraw
This man met Squire Wilkie
And soon became a friend
And thus he came to Crohans
A holiday to spend.
