The people had for some days to crowd on the neighbouring chapel floor, and by the sides of the ditches, for the neighbours had orders not to take them in: it is fair to state the whole of this mass of tenantry had been created by a middleman, whose lease was now out. Taken from The Truth Behind The Irish Famine, signed copies only at www.jerrymulvihill.com
#OTD in 1941 – Death of painter, Sir John Lavery, in Kilkenny. Best known for his portraits, Belfast-born Lavery attended the Haldane Academy in Glasgow, Scotland, in the 1870s and the Académie Julian in Paris in the early 1880s.

From The Truth Behind The Irish Famine, 100 images, 472 eye witness quotes: www.jerrymulvihill.com
