The Magna Carta has a long and fascinating history and many myths and fables have been conjured up surrounding its formation.

 

In fact, there is not a single ‘Magna Carta’ but several subtly different documents, issued at different times and for different reasons.

 

In this talk, Dr Jessica Nelson, Head of Collections Expertise and Engagement, will discuss the origins of the charter, its crucial 13th century reissues, and how public perceptions of it have changed over time

See below an article that my friend and associate Evangelist Alveda King and I just co-authored about initiatives for unity in the pro-life movement published on LifeNews.com. Alveda is a Senior Advisor and Board Member of Priests for Life.

 

Today I am at the Connecticut March for Life in Hartford and will have some photos and videos to share with you on Thursday. Stay tuned.

 

This week on www.EndAbortion.TV I spoke with Warren Williams, a Christian Lay Counselor and founder of Fathers and Brothers in Boulder, Colorado on the topic of Men and Abortion. You can watch it at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3l-5ELl6xM. Please share this link with anyone you think might benefit.

 

Saturday, March 25 is the Feast of the Annunciation, The Day of the Unborn Child and the anniversary of the encyclical Evangelium Vitae. Priests for Life and other pro-life groups urge churches to celebrate this special day in some way. I’ll be doing interviews the day before for various media outlets, and then praying at an abortion mill in Miami on Saturday. See www.DayOfTheUnborn.com for more information and ideas on ways to celebrate this day. I will be leading prayers that day in Miami at an abortion mill.

 

Please be sure to go to TheBibleAndAbortion.com for my scripture reflections that I broadcast each morning that I’m not traveling.

The Pro-Life Movement Needs Unity to Save More Babies From Abortions

 

    Pro-life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life

    Evangelist Alveda King, Senior Advisor and Board Member, Priests for Life

 

The pro-life movement is composed of a stunning number and variety of groups large and small, spanning all ages, professions, creeds, and practically every other designation we can name. Literally thousands of groups are active in the United States alone.

 

One of the reasons for this wide variety is that the goal of the pro-life movement is so basic and fundamental: the preservation of life itself. Because life itself is prior to any other rights or traits, no matter how diverse they may be, it stands to reason that a cause that seeks to protect the right to life will find adherents across that wide and diverse spectrum of human interests. In this sense, the presence of so many groups is a good and healthy sign.

 

Moreover, the pro-life movement does not arise because any religious or political leader calls it together. It arises from the depths of our humanity, and our natural instinct to protect our children. The movement forms around the kitchen tables and living rooms of America.

 

Leadership in the pro-life movement, as the two of us have been privileged to exercise for decades, needs to humbly respect that fact. Fostering unity in our movement does not mean demanding a cookie-cutter conformity to particular methods or messages carefully crafted by PR firms.

 

The Left does this kind of thing as it tries to impose “equity” on society – that is, a sameness of outcomes rather than an equality of opportunity. This squelches creativity and initiative. If an entrepreneur realizes that the fruits of his or her labor will belong to government and be equally distributed, or that positions in a company are being opened up because of skin color rather than achievement, what incentive is there for the creativity and hard work that success requires?

 

More conservative minds, however, advocate for ingenuity and free-market competition. Everyone has a chance, but where they end up depends on the hard work they do.

 

And unity in the movement means welcoming the fruits of that labor, and enabling groups to communicate with each other effectively, and combine efforts where possible, while respecting one another’s autonomy.

 

Over the years, we’ve been blessed to facilitate a number of special opportunities for such unity.

 

Back in 2010, we worked together to hold the Pro-life Freedom Rides, modeled on the Freedom Rides of the 20th century Civil Rights Movement. We took busses to various communities in the South, and proclaimed the protection of the unborn as the civil rights movement of today. This energized especially the Black community, which is blessed to have many solid pro-life leaders.

 

We have also hosted pro-life retreats of various types. The “Come Aside and Rest a While” retreats that Msgr. Mike Mannion hosted for years were a pioneering effort in this arena. In the late 90’s and early 2000’s, Priests for Life hosted the “Chapel Hill” retreats at the ranch of Judge Bill Clark (close associate of Ronald Reagan). These were not strategy sessions, but rather prayerful encounters with the Lord and one another over the span of two days. Many relationships were healed and collaborative efforts encouraged by those gatherings.

 

In recent years we have hosted three-day strategy meetings of the Pro-life Leadership Coalition at our Priests for Life headquarters. We were together for one just last month, with some 43 national leaders, and I (Alveda) began with a prayerful reflection, using a verse I often quote from Acts 17:26, “And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth.” As you can read in my book, We’re Not Colorblind, healing the racial divide does not mean closing our eyes to ethnic differences. On the contrary, unity means that we welcome that diversity to the same table of human dignity.

 

Going forward, we rejoice in the variety of other coalitions that help our movement – the Abortion Recovery Coalition, of which our Rachel’s Vineyard and Silent No More Ministries are a part together with many other healing ministries; our Vote Pro-life Coalition, helping citizens discern the most fundamental issues, and the various specialized meetings of pro-life attorneys, pregnancy center leaders, and much more.

 

Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “We must learn to live together as brothers [and sisters].” As the one blood human race of Acts 17:26, we must unite, for the victory of life from the womb to the tomb and beyond.

 

We end abortion when we help mom and dad to trust that the child is not an obstacle to their fulfillment. Rather, both child and parents find their fulfillment in giving themselves to each other in love.

 

The same is true among pro-life groups. Giving ourselves to each other in a dynamic trust and cooperation will overcome in us what we want pregnant mothers to overcome in their own minds and hearts. Let’s be sure to give them the example.

So sorry to hear of Fr Kennellys  passing. I was an alter boy in St Mary’s Cathedral  in 1973/4/5 and served many a mass with Fr K.

DEATH OF THE REV. JOHN ENRIGHT, C.C.

 

A correspondent of the Kerry Sentinel, writing to the issue of that paper for the 15th inst, says :— It becomes our unwelcome duty to record the death of Father John Enright, late C. C. of Listowel, which took place at the residence of his father, Newtownsandes, on Tuesday, the 8th inst. Thus closes after six years in the sacred ministry the, alas too brief career of this accomplished young priest.

 

MCELLIGOTT: Brief history of Mike the Pies by Vincent Carmody

 

McElligott and O'Connor families.

 

Number 28 Patrick St (Upper William Street),

 

has been the family home for only two families since it was built in the 1890s. The McElligott family who built it, resided there until their emigration to the United States in 1907 and the O'Connor family purchased it that year.

 

In 1906, as news of the San Francisco earthquake filtered through, William McElligott visualized how his architectural skills could be of value in the rebuilding of the now badly devastated city. Having decided to sell the business, it went up for auction in February 1907.

 

The successful new owners, Michael and Kate O Connor did not have to travel far to relocate, they had been tenants of Lar Buckley, cooper, at number 24, just two doors down. Here, they had ran a grocery shop and here Kate baked meat pies, which she sold at fair and market days. In an amazing twist, the O'Connors had been in America and had returned to set up a business in their native North Kerry, while the McElligott's were selling out in Ireland, eager to find out could they to make fame and fortune in America.

 

 

 

Michael and Kate concentrated on running the public house and had a busy grocery and flour and meal business, Kate continued with her pie making, so much so, that the pub acquired the name 'Mike the Pies'. Their son, Michael, married Mary McElligott from Moyvane in the 1940's. They had six sons, Michael, Thomas, Roger, Eamon, Denis and Maurice. Mike the Pies is still operated by the O'Connor family, it is as busy as ever and over time has developed into a popular music venue.

O’HANLON: On 25 April 1681, Count Redmond O’Hanlon was fatally shot near Hilltown, County Down. According to popular account, he was murdered while sleeping.

 

Redmond O’Hanlon (Sung by Tommy Makem)

 

There was a man lived in the north, a hero brave and bold

 

Who robbed the wealthy landlords of their silver and their gold

 

He gave the money to the poor, to pay their rent and fee

 

For Count Redmond O'Hanlon was a gallant rapparee.

 

CASTLE: Listowel Castle was built in the 15th century and was the last fortress of the Geraldines to be subdued. It fell after 28 days siege to Sir Charles Wilmot on the 5th November, 1600, who had the castle's garrison executed in the following days. Today, the remnants of the castle include two of its four towers, which are joined by a heavy curtain wall, and the unusual feature of an arch below the battlements.

 

TRAIN: The Lartigue Monorail was 14.4 km in length and linked Listowel and Ballybunion, it opened on 1 March 1888. In 2003 the Lartigue Monorailway Restoration Committee opened a 500 metre section of Lartigue monorail on the trackbed of the former North Kerry line, including a replica locomotive and coaches.

DUAGH CHURCH

 

We bring your attention to some much needed maintenance works which took place here in our parish be it to our churches or Presbytery in recent months. A major job had to be done to the upper bay windows of the Presbytery which were allowing water into the internal walls. It had destroyed the walls which also needed to be renovated and painted. Furthermore, the heating system had not been working with some time and the Presbytery was deteriorating fast. Having investigated and serviced the Boiler it then had to be replaced. Then we discovered that the many of the radiators were corroded, rusted or blocked and they had to be replaced. That job is now complete and hopefully will maintain the building for now. Also the Sanctuary Lighting in Duagh Church needed to be up graded and we put in LED lighting. Also the CCTV system in the church was not working and had to be up dated and much of it renewed. The Steps at the back of the Sacristy had fallen into disrepair and would not meet Health and Safety regulations of today and they have now been renewed. Great work has also taken place at Lyre Church thanks to their own community. All of this work is at a considerable financial cost to the Parish and we thank you for your continued support. The Parish Finance Council will publish the Accounts of 2016 later in the year. Keep up the good work in supporting your Parish. (Taken from Duagh Newsletter)

THE ROSE OF NEWTOWNSANDES

One evening fair, to take the air as the summer sun went down.

 My heart was gay, I said I'd stray to the village o sweet Newtown.

In a neat abode beside the road where a neat plantation stands.

In it dwells my Irish belle, she's the Rose of Newtownsandes,

 

I stood and gazed and was amazed at the beauty I had seen,

Her nut brown hair waved in the air, and she was dressed in green;

She tripped along quite merrily with a rose-bud in her hand,

 She's a charming maid I do declare, she's the Rose of Newtownsandes.

 

I'd give all earthly treasure if I could gain her hand,

 All the gold and silver that glitters in the land;

But sad for me, it ne'er will be that we'll join in wedlock bands,

But I'll watch, and pray, I'll wed one day the Rose of Newtownsandes.

 

Now to sing the praise of this lovely maid I hope, I won't offend,

 I've known her since my boyhood  days. she's been my only friend;

Now, I suppose, God only knows wherein this journey stands.

Still I’ll watch, and pray, I’ll wed one day the Rose of Newtownsandes.

 

I'd give all Damer had in store if she were only mine,

 All the land along the Bann and the waters of the Boyne;

America lies far, far away and her scenery it is grand.

But there is nothing there I can compare with the Rosa of Newtownsandes.

 

Now it's time to close for sweet repose, as time is fleeting by,

With pen In hand I think of her. she's been my only bride.

My dreams and thoughts lie in the west in some far distant land,

And my bones will mingle in the clay with the Rose of Newtownsandes.

DRURY: A special night of remembrance and reminiscence was held in Knockanure Community Centre on Sunday night last March 7th 2010. Keynote speakers were Dan Keane and John Looney. Jimmy Deenihan was master of ceremonies. Many misconceptions about the works of Paddy Drury were explored and corrected; the old Shannonside Annual account of Paddy and his songs and wit are generally correct, only a few bits and pieces are erroneously attributed to Drury. Dan Keane without notes was able to recall a lengthy remembrance of the Drury Family, their neighbours and times. A Wall plaque in honour of Paddy Drury was unveiled on the night, it will be a lasting memorial to a man of wit and poetry, much of his compositions are missing and most are lost for posterity. Anyone with further information please make contact with the committee. One of Paddy Drurys compositions is, Maggie from the lot

In the plough lands of Kilbaha there dwells a comely maid,

It's many the young and foolish heart she has betrayed

Loved by rich and poor though humble in her cot

Her name I wont tell, where she Dwells is always called the lot

Connell and Power like salmon in a scour they're dying with the hatch

The man says that he'll entertain them and the house they'll thatch

Maggie she is wide-awake drawing them every hour

The maid was smart and won the heart and a watch from power. One of Paddy Drury's many rhymes. The woman referred to was Maggie Forester a returned yank.

Mickey Drury and Joan Carroll were parents of Paddy who was born in 1859 and lived at Carrueragh, Knockanure, Paddys siblings were John 1857, Ellen 1858, James 1861 Michael 1864 and William 1868. Jack was lame, Billy had his neck a bit twisted, Mick was called Ruck .

 

Paddy Drury
KNOCKANURE

 

 

May the lord have mercy on those youths?

Their hearts were loyal and pure

They were caught and shot in that lonely spot

In the fort near Knockanure.

 

From tyrants and their bloody crew no mercy could they find

But God consoled their weeping friends in their sorrow left behind.

There was Gerry Lyons there from Duagh, Pat Dalton from Athea

Paddy Walsh from Ballydonoghue and on Dee who got away.

Over hill and dale Con leaping as bullets pierced the ground

Then jumping the stream at the Bog Lane, he blinked the devils hounds.

By the mountainside he crawled along though wounded then and sore

He shed a tear for his comrades who were dying in their gore.

We do have two more we do deplore that in our Parish fell.

Mick Galvin and Jack Sheahan brave in heaven they do now dwell.

 

 

 

In the plough lands of Kilbaha there dwells a comely maid,

Mickey Drury was married to Joan Carroll and lived at Carrueragh, Knockanure. Their children John 1857, Ellen 1858, Paddy 1859, James 1861 Michael 1864 and William 1868. Jack was lame, Billy had his neck a bit twisted, Mick was called Ruck .

Valley of Knockanure.

You may come and speak about Easter week and the heroes of ‘98,

Of the gallant men who roamed the glen

In victory or defeat;

Their names were placed in history's page,

Their memories will endure;

Not a song was sung for our darling sons

In the Valley of Knockanure.

 

They were Walshe, Lynes, and Dalton,

Men that were in their prime

In every house, in every town

They were always side by side.

The Republic bold, they did uphold,

They outlawed on the moor,

But side by side, they fought and died,

In the Valley of Knockanure.

 

At Gortnagleanna's rugged height,

Three gallant men took shape,

They viewed the soft sweet wheat

As the summer breeze did play.

It was not long until Lynes came on

Saying, "Time is not mine nor yours,"

But it was too late, they met their fate,

In the Valley of Knockanure.

 

They took them then beside a fence

Where the furze did bloom.

And like brothers so, they faced the foe,

To meet with their dreadful doom.

And when Dalton was dying, aloud he cried

With a fashion proud and true:

"For our land we're dying, as we face the sky,

In the Valley of Knockanure."

 

It was by a neighboring hillside

They listened in calm dismay.

In every house, in every town,

A maiden knelt and prayed.

"They are closing in around us, with a rifle fire so sure,"

And Dalton is dead and Lynes is down,

In the Valley of Knockanure.

 

There they lay in the hillside's clay

For the love of Ireland's cause.

The cowardly clan, the Black-and-Tans,

They showed them English law.

No more they'll feel the soft wild steel

Over uplands fair and high,

For side by side, they fought and died,

In the Valley of Knockanure.

 

I then met Dalton's mother and those words to me did say:

"May the Lord have mercy on those boys

Who died in that glen today,

Oh but I would kiss their cold, cold lips

My aching heart would cure

And we laid them down to rest

In the Valley of Knockanure."

 

The golden sun was sinking,

far beyond Feilinlee.

The pale, pale moon was shining,

Far beyond Tralee.

The dismal stars and clouds afar

Had darkened over the moor,

And the banshee cried, where our heroes died,

In the Valley of Knockanure.

 

THE GLEN OF KNOCKANURE

 

By: Paddy Drury

 

May the Lord have mercy on their souls, Their hearts were loyal and true. They were beat and shot in a lonely spot, In a glen near Knockanure.

 

There was Jerry Lyons now, from Duagh, There was Dalton from Athea, There was Walsh from Ballydonoghue And Con Dee, who ran away.

 

Through hill and vale, he did leg bail, As the bullets pierced the ground, ‘till he jumped the stream, at the Bog Lane, Where he blinked the devil’s hounds.

 

Through mountainside slow, he did tide Though wounded then and sore, And he shed a tear for his comrades dear, Who were bleeding in their gore.

 

For our martyrs bold, now dead and cold, To the lorries were thrown in, And Smith said there was an ambush at The Gortaglanna glen.

 

For now Sinn Fein prove that you’ll gain And remember those who died And let each man try to keep his eye, On Smith and on McBride.

 

Now we have two more, we sad deplore, That in this parish fell, They are Galvin and Sheahan, In Heaven they all dwell.

 

 


 

DRURY: Maggie from the lot
In the plough lands of Kilbaha there dwells a comely maid,
It's many the young and foolish heart she has betrayed
Loved by rich and poor though humble in her cot
Her name I wont tell, where she Dwells is always called the lot
Connell and Power like salmon in a scour they're dying with the hatch
The man says that he'll entertain them and the house they'll thatch
Maggie she is wide-awake drawing them every hour
The maid was smart and won the heart and a watch from power. One of Paddy Drury's many rhymes. The woman referred to was Maggie Forester a returned yank.
Mickey Drury and Joan Carroll were parents of Paddy who was born in 1859 and lived at Carrueragh, Knockanure, Paddys siblings were John 1857, Ellen 1858, James 1861 Michael 1864 and William 1868. Jack was lame, Billy had his neck a bit twisted, Mick was called Ruck .
FOLKLORE Site on the internet has many local photographs, to mention a few, Farmer and Family in Athea 1908; Danaher Group 1905 and long thatched house; several houses in Athea in various styles; A two roomed house in Moyvane 1938 and a Moyvane House with Hipped Gables; The site also has a big collection of West Kerry and some Cashen pictures, another curious picture is the house of Cave Kate from Caherdaniel;
Potatoes ridges, Tossing Sheaf; Wrenboys and McCoy's Mill.

 

 

Historians have estimated that up to two million Irishmen left Ireland to join the armies of foreign countries in the hundred years after 1691, with half a million dying for France alone during this period. They were under sentence of death never to return. All of them forfeited everything - their homes, their families, their lands and estates. They had a dream of assembling a big army in France, and returning to conquer Ireland for James II, for Catholicism and for freedom. The battle of Le Hoque, the death of James II, and the Treaty of Ryswick turned their dream into a nightmare. Here is the story of a man from Galway and his French born son, which epitomizes the whole saga of the Wild Geese.

Song of Sarsfield's Trooper
The night fell dark on Limerick and all the land was still,
As for the foe in ambush we lay beside the hill;
Long impatiently we waited to rush upon our prey,
With noble Sarsfield at our head before the break of day.
From Dublin came foemen, with deadly warlike store -
Huge guns with tons of powder and thund'ring balls galore
But little was he dreaming that there to work his bale,
We'd come with our commander bold from dark Slieve Felims Vale.

At the lonely hour of midnight each man leaped on his stead,
Down moor and vale to Cullen we dashed with lightening speed;
Then eagerly we galloped to Ballyneety's wall,
Where lay our foe's encampment with guns and stores and all.
"Give the word!" - "The word is Sarsfield, and Sarsfield is the man:
And here I am!" our general cried, as down on them we ran;
Then God he cleared the firmament, the moon and stars gave light,
And for the battle of the Boyne we took revenge that night.
