LAND of My SIRES.
Although my eyes have ne'er beheld
Old Erin's fields of green,
Shall I for this, then, be compelled
My love from her to wean?
Although my feet have never pressed
The soil my father's trod;
Yet, shall not my love attest
For that old Irish sod?
Ah, yes! for though Columbia's strand
To me be mother earth,
It can't be fault to love the land
That gave my parents birth?
Since, thro' my each and every vein
Run noble Celtic blood.
And false l'Il prove if e'er I stain
That rich and spotless flood,
If any of our Western friends know
aught of the location in which lived a
deceasd lady, maiden name Hession,
whose father came to this country ab-
out 80 years ago from Garrymore¬
mountain, County Mayo. will confer
a favor on a Gaelic student by commu¬
nicating such intelligence to us.
