    o'clock and the team took refreshments in shops. The train left Dublin about six o'clock in the evening and was back at Lixnaw at three o'clock in the morning, and the team had to walk home from Lixnaw station. About a week after they got gold medals. They got no money but their expenses were freed that day by the Central Board.

    This account I got from my grandfather, Michael Sullivan one of the Kerry team, who played that day. He is 71 years now. He sent his medal to a brother in America.
