UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Three hundred years ago there
lived in Ireland man named
Richard Boyle. He was English by
birth
AS a young man he went over to
ireland with very little money In
his pockets. Before long he came
to know young woman OF wealth,
and they we're married.
The fortune which fell to his lot
through marriage was built into a
far greater one. The family pur-
chased large estates in Munster,
and built ironworks.
The ironworks of those days
were different from those OF to-
day. At that time there was no
factory or mill driven by steam
or electric power. Hand labor was
used.
Thousands of persons labored
on the estate and in the IRON
works of the Boyle family. From
the ironworks alone profits of half
a million dollars we're made.
Richard Boyle's family was a
large one. His seventh son-and
14th child-was named Robert.
Seven years before the birth of
Robert, the father had been honored
by the British King. He had been
made the Earl of Cork.
OF all the children, Robert
showed the most promise. While

East made a hash Of matters by

would be unable to get the lead
back into his own hand in order to
ruff the other club. He would lead
