AN GAODHAL.
Ach bheurfaidh me móide 's mo mhór-dhoigh
nach m-brisfead í choidhche,
I g-cualuadar ban óga go deo, deo nach
suidhfidh mé síos:
Na'r mbdh é g-crathughadh leobhtha d-tús m'
óige a's me d-tosach mo shaoighil;
'Siad mná chúl a bhóthair mhúin an t-eolas
dam go tobar na bh-Fian.
Tráth do chidhim an t-aos óg tráthnóna
dul amach in a bh-fonn,
Séidim fuil shróna, agus reubthar míle
osna in mo chom,
Síor smuaineadh air mo stóirín a bheur¬
fadh ól dam 's imirt air chlár.
A bheith aig fear eile pósta 's me mo
dheoraidhe 'g imtheacht le fán.

We are indebted to Mr. M. P. Ward
for this song. It is the composition
of Dominick Cosgrove, whose family
removed from the county Galway and
settled near Castlebar, county Mayo.
Friend Ward said a good deal more
concerning his history but, being limit¬
ed in space, we had to "boil” it down.
SENTIMENTS of OUR SUBSCRIBERS.
Ala. per F. S. McCusker, Mrs. Capt, O.
Finigan, T. Dolan. Mr. McCosker remarks, — "I
think Gael Glas must get up a scheme more prac¬
tical to enlist the attention and co-operation of
those interested. Long prayers seem to have lit¬
tle effect on the British. Let him vary the pro¬
gramme with dynamite and he will bring the end
much nearer."

Iowa. J. Hagarty. J. J. Hawkins, per Mr.
Hagarty. Mr. Hagarty says. — "A few days ago
I received St. Patrick's Prayerbook so much desi¬
red. Now I can learn to pray in the Tongue of
Erin's saints, sages and heroes. Formerly I used
the Latin, which I picked up as best I could, for
I would not insult Heaven by using the vile tong¬
ue of the Sodomite if I knew any other.“ (If Erin
had a few hundred thousand such sons ? —Ed.)
