Description An account of the resource Among the rocks near "Miley's" We had our own "Wild West" Tom Mix, Roy Rogers And Hop Along, Were the heroes we love best. With wooden guns and steady aim, We hardly ever missed, As we shot down all the outlaws, Upon the " Wanted List". But when the "Leathers Echo" Sounded near the hall, The notes of the pied piper, Had not a sweeter call. The sheep were the spectators, The ditch the Hogan Stand, And Keogh's dog the leader, As we walked behind the band! We kicked, we ran, we scored, We didn't have a care And each took turns to commentate. Just like Micheal O Hehir. We fished for trout in the "Tinker's Brook" When the Summer stream was low, While in the drifts of Winter, We tracked rabbits in the snow. With piece of stick and bicycle wheel, We could roam the world o'er, No hill too high no sea too deep, That we could not explore. When the cuckoo called and swallow came, We searched every tree and bush, And each of us could tell the nest. Of blackbird, wren or thrush. We picked chestnuts in the Autumn Searched for frogspawn in the Spring And when the "Frockens" ripened, It was then we ate our fill! Among the ferns at " Hide and Seek" It was the girls against the boys, We now had grown much older And outgrown all our toys. Love it bloomed and hearts were broke, As we learned how to grow And you I sought and sometimes found When did I let you go?

In his guardhouse there I was tried And in his parlour my sentence tried’ My sentence passed and passed very low, Unto Duncannon I was obliged to go. As I was going up the mountain high Who would blame me then for to cry? I looked behind me, then before, And my tender parents saw and then ne’er saw more. When my poor parents did hear the news They followed me with money and clothes; Five hundred guineas they would lay down To let me walk upon sweet Irish ground. They guarded me through Borris town, The bloody Orangemen did me surround. The captain told me he’d let me free If I would bring him one, two or three. ‘I’d rather die or be nailed to a tree Than traitor turn to my country. In Duncannon ‘twas my lot to die, And in Duncannon does my body lie And every one that does pass by prays ’ The Lord have mercy on the Roman boy.’ Carlow South Local event Patriotic Hero Social Comment https://fromcarlowstreams.ie/files/original/337b1568d9fced298e9efc679c047c4c.jpeg 1cd40afd09aa6db32ee4a2642c29500b Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource The Jolly Fox Hunters Author: unknown Melody: The words fit the melody of The Glendalough Saint Subject The topic of the resource This was printed in Wexford in the 1860s; it was given by Paddy Berry to Tony Malone. The piece traces the course of a fox hunt through south Carlow in 1799, while the country was still suffering reprisals after the rebellion of 1798. Sir William Burdett of Garryhill Castle was 3rd Baronet of Dunmore. Description An account of the resource Come boys let us follow the fox No more we’ll be called lazy grunters; We’ll hunt him through mountains and rocks For we are the jolly fox hunters. We’ll rise him at six in the morn; I’ll hold ten to one that we’ll kill him; If Lang gives a blast to his horn We’ll surely all follow Sir William. The last time we met for the chase At Kilcoltrim the ‘Babbies’ assembled; We drew round that beautiful place, Had sly Reynard been there he’d have trembled. The red rogue broke Coolyhune copse: We led off with Bowler and Jolly; We brushed him by hills, dales and rocks And we ran him through hazel and holly. Of the bogs and the breaks we kept clear, But the brooks and the banks disregarded. Dick Lang pushed us on with each cheer: The country all ‘round we’re sure heard it. Poor Reynard he came to disgrace For the ducks and the geese felt his ravage; He ran for his life through each place To the beautiful site of Rocksavage. By the palace of Marley we ran, Ballycrinigan rocks scrambled over; Up by Knockamulgurry each man Went as if he was going to clover. Like aigles we rose on the hill; All Wexford we saw underneath us, But the rogue was in front of us still And we hadn’t a turn to breath us. We ran him towards the Blackstairs Where the best horse in Europe would stumble. Mick Sinnott with Bill Garret’s mare, Like mountebanks down they did tumble. Then he thought to get on to the rocks Which before us rose up like church steeples But we snaffled the wily old fox Or we’d all ha’ gone home limping cripples. Dick lang blew his horn right stout And you’d think we were going to berrin’; The people so crowded about When they heard he was dead as a herrin’. Then like hosiers we footed along, Each sportsman had aired his red jacket; A few of them dropped from the throng But in Myshall they ended the racket. Carlow South Local event Social Comment
