At Point-to-Point races
Her pluck and earnestness had seen
Coming first in many cases
Horsemanship good judgement keen.Miss Anne Bagot from Curraghmore
On a hunter almost fit to fly
With Miss Crofton, Mote Park, in joy galore
And then a lovelight in my eye.Kilbegnet's pride to hounds would push
With spurs of slinging steel,
Then a picture for the painter's brush
Was the Late Mrs Johnnie Sheil.Of the ladies all I knew her best
With me many a day spent here
Oh! May her soul in glory rest
So also her husband Johnnie dear.The beautiful Misses Balfes (two)
With their father oft times come
These two every fence and bank knew
Hunting was their sport and fun.Mrs John P Mulligan from the Walk
And the late Mrs E.J. Blakeney
