   The Master Captain paid the toll at death's mysterious gate
   He's sleeping neath Northampton soil in Massachusetts State
   Were he within his native land awaiting judgements' dawn
   In Sherkins shade would friends had laid the Captain of Drishane

   God rest you Captain Casey you've not lived nor worked in vain
   Your teaching finds expression in the movement of Sinn Féin
   Where ere fair Carbery's cloud capped hills the shades of night have drawn
   Fond tales are told of Casey bold, and the Fenians of Drishane.

   The above lines were written down from the dictation of her Mother Mrs Daniel Regan, by a pupil of Tragumna National School. Mrs Regan lives in Drihanebeg Skibbereen Co Cork and heard the above sung by her father

   Tom Casey was School master in Drishanemore School Skibbereen Co Cork at the time of the Fenian Rising

   Drishanemore School was abandoned when the present school Tragumna was opened in September 1871.

   In olden times there were two Schools in Drishanemore which townland is about three miles due South of the town of Skibbereen. There is a dolmen to be seen in a field in this townland.
