store, cleaning and dyeing estab-

have been the intended victims of
the terrorists.

Vessels May Be Older
Than St. Patrick's Time

An interesting archaeological discov-
cry was made by men clearing an old
ditch at Mornington, county Louth,
Ireland, village at the mouth of the
Boyne.
Mornington is connected by tradition
with st. Patrick, who In 432, after I'M
successful efforts to effect landing
In other parts of Ireland, entered the
Boyne there and ran his vessel into
what was then known as the harbor at
Colpa, now called Colp.
In ditch into which within living
memory the Boyne used to flow, form
ing natural harbor, workmen I'M
earthed the timbers of several Oaken
vessels lying at an angle to the stream
and apparently of great age. The
length of the vessels cannot be ascer-
tained until after further excavations
The fact that sandy soil will pre-
serve oak for thousands of years opens
up the possibility that the vessels may
be even older than st. Patricks time.
Steps have been taken to protect them
until they have been seen by an arch
