- The following was composed by the late Richard Cooper Killabeg about 1868Father DwyerYour attention for a moment
I call upon today
For to tell you of those orange dogs
How long they're going astray
We have noble Father Dwyer
Who's determined in his faith
Who called his flock around him
Saying 'Remember '98'
Their orange flag we will pull down
Our glorious band will play
We will let those cursed Sanons see
They will not have their way.
For God he will assist us
For sworn blood to spill
We will have guns and ammunition boys
Not like on Vinegar Hill(continues on next page)
