are an asset of beauty to the county,
Wicklow is one of the best wooded
counties in Ireland, but if the indis-

At small meeting held recently in

had given England soldiers in return
for promise of Home Rule. It would
be we'll to look at this matter in it's
true light. The Irishmen who enlisted
i'll England's army, would have gone
wrong in any event, and Ireland is we'll
