CORK: MOST IRISH CITY
In IRELAND

COFk, tniF0 city OF lreihuu, y CVn,
siderable part Of which was recently
destroyed by FIRE, bears q very super
fetal resemblance to our own New
York In that Its nucleus is situated
on an island enfolded by two arms
Of river where its waters meet q
bay. The comparison soon becomes
contrast. however. for Cork Is city
Of less than $1,000 souls. has few pub
lie buildings or thoroughfares Of I'm
portance, and was built on q low,
swampy site, instead Of on the rocky
ribs Of Mother Earth.
The stream that enfolded Cork be-
fore It grew across Its watery bar.
riers Is the River Lee which rises la
little lake to the north. From
tiny island In the lake came the piOus
hermit, st. Fin Barre, who established
monastery on the island at the
mouth Of the river In the seventh cen
tury, and from this start the present
city has grown. Both the Catholic
and Protestant cathedrals Of Cork are
dedicated to this early Irish saint.
At the head Of one Of the finest
harbors In Ireland--a land-locked cove
whose waters are as placid as those
Of a lake-Cork has been subject since
Its establishment to attacks BY sea
marauders. Invading Danes burned
the city In s2l and again in 1912.
and after the second destruction
founded on the site a Danish trading
post. The Irish. again in control Of
the city, submitted to the English In
ll72, who for many years maintained
u precarlOus foOth0ld.
The Irish eventually regained Cork
not by force Of arms but BY "inAltra-
tion." for before a great while the
one-time English post was the most
Irish city IN Ireland, its government
entirely In the hands Of the people
Of Erin.
