- (continued from previous page)It was often in Taghmon he did raise the fun
And scarcely had the fair began
He made the darling children run
With hankes of hairy asses
With Jerry Connors and his mother
Jerry's aunts and Jerry's brother
And old Cash comes oer the border
With his lovely daughter - One of the best poets of this locality was Patrick Reilly,

Dressed in their very best.ii

The sports were much the same,
But the evening came too quickly
And was'nt that a shame.(continues on next page)- Collector
