The Irish standard., 1905-06-24

On May 2Sth, a great demonstration,
worthy of the patriot peasants who
fell fighting for Irish liberty, at the
battle of Vinegar Hill took place at
Enniscorthy. The day was the one
hundred and seventh anniversary Of
the capture Of the town by the insur-
gents, in '98, and the occasion was
that of the laying of the foundation
stone of the memorial which it is pro-
posed to erect to the soldiers who died
on the patriot side of the battle of
Vinegar Hill at subsequent date. I'M
mense crowds poured into Enniscor-
thy, from different parts of the prov
inces of Leinster and Munster.
