Description
"Travelling through Ireland in the good old times was at best a precarious and inconvenient diversion. Those who had to do so regretted the necessity, and those who had not, praised Providence. Many "persons of quality, " to use Dr. Johnson's phrase, have written narratives of their adventures and experiences in "the most damnable country. " No man of position, even early in the nineteenth century, would dream of travelling threescore miles from his residence without having signed and sealed his last will and testament. The highways were beset by "Gentlemen of the Road, " such as that fascinating felon, "Brennan on the Moor, " of whom the ballad tells- "A brace of loaded pistols he carried night and day. ""
