- (continued from previous page)With O'Connell's likeness on every side,
To conquer Orange Bill,
And those Brunswick hounds of Cavan town
Will remember the boys of Kill.IV
They amrched down through Cavan town
Kill boys were in the front
They were the boys without much noise, the Orange for to hunt
With fiddles and fifes and Highland pipes,
They played Patrick's-Day also,
And as they went down through Cavan town
They were a gallant show.V
As they marched along all in the throng
Joined with the Fourth Dragoons
The people said they would like to hear some of their party tunes
The White Cockade was loudly played
With music loud and shrill,
It caused Cavan town to echo round
"Long live the boys of Kill".(continues on next page)- Collector
