the amount ascertained to be due on
foot of crown debt by the defendant
The defendant, Kate Reilly, was post
mistress at Glenamaddy, in the coun-
ty of Galway, and having made de-
fault, the crown proceeded to obtain
Judgment by writ, and subsequently
certain leasehold interests of the de-
PENDANT, situate at Glenamaddy and

KERRY.
Gaelic summer schools are being es-
tablished at various points throughout
Iveragh, for the benefit of visitors as
we'll as the native residents. Derry
name, the home of the Liberator, has
appropriately been chosen as the chief
center for imparting knowledge of
the old tongue. Irish is spoken by
young and old there, and Mr.. Finean
Lynch, Kilmakerin, N. S., Caherciveen,
and Mr.. John Dillon, Spunkane, N. S.,
Waterville, have arranged for "Sgoil
Saoire" in Waterville. Ballinskelligs,
where everybody speaks Irish, is an
other center. Father a. Murphy and
Mr.. Divane, N. T., will give all infor-
nation, and the Glenbeigh National
school is at the disposal of the Irish
class. Mr.. John Cantwell, Glenbeigh,
will teach the Irish language there,
and will give full particulars to ill.,
tending students. From the foregoing
intelligence it will be seen that moth
ing has been left undone to make
Kerry the favorite rsort of those who
desire to combine pleasure with the
study of the grand old tongue of Ire
| land.
