When Standish McNeill started talking to his friend Felix O'Dowd as they walked at a leisurely pace towards the town of Castlegregory on a June morning, what he said was: "The world is a wonderful place when you come to think about it, an' Ireland is a wonderful place an' so is America, an' though there are lots of places like each other there's no place like Ballysantamalo.
"But charity is decency and wisdom is holding your tongue when you don't know what you're talking about." "If the people of Ballysantamalo are so decent, how is it that there are so many bachelors there?
"Well," said Standish, "I think we will leave the women where the devil left St. Peter " "Where was that?" asked Felix. "Alone," answered Standish. "That would be all very fine if they stayed there," said Felix. "Now," said Standish, "as I was talking of me travels in foreign parts, I want to tell you about the morning I walked along the beach at Ballysantamalo, an' a warm morning it was too.
