  1. (continued from previous page)
    Oh, for another Owen Roe to
    marshal such a host,
    and deeds of valour's daring
    could a future history boast.
    Like the fair of Killmore,
    those scenes, those times,
    those men are fading into
    the dim memories of the
    past, but they shall ever,
    and for ever, leave their
    shadows behind.
    Perhaps the reader can
    now locate the exact
    latitude and longitude of
    this particular fair we
    treat of. If that favourite
    personage cannot do so, we
    are unable to further
    extricate the tangle, beyond
    letting our friends know
    that the fair Killmore.
