a month before her demise. Her in
tellect was unimpaired until the last,
and she spoke the native Irish Ian
guage fluently. She was born some
time before the sanguinary conflict at
Petersville, in the parish of Moynalty,
between the Peep O. the Day boys and
the Defenders in 1898, and had a recol-
lection of some of the incidents of 1898.
She sang Irish songs so well that her
home was often visited by persons
anxious to obtain a proper pronuncia-
ton of certain words. The large num-
Der who accompanied her remains to
kelly's church burying place bore tes-
timony to the esteem in which she was
held.

portant effect in developing the Bur

year yielded d return of over $3.50, 600.
With the improved facilities for trans
port to English and Scotch markets
this sum is sure to be much augment
ed in future The first passenger train
left Letterkenny at SIS a. m. and ar
rived at Burtonport about 1870 a. m.
1t was made up of new rolling stock,
engine. tender and carriages being then
used for the first time. This train
was accompanied by Mr.. r. S. Moore,

superintendent. and Mr.. Fisher. loco

intermediate stations. The later re-
mark also applies to the return pas
