There were three Miss s, from the County of Tipperary, three degrees of comparison the positive, the comparative, and the superlative; excellent figures, with white feathers as long as my two arms joined together, stuck in the front of what were meant for Spanish hats. How they towered above their sex, divinely vulgar, with brogues of true Milesian race!

To be sure, to be sure, he must have made the grand tour, and come home by way of Tipperary. 'And being moreover forbid, says the prancer, 'to enter into the cruel subject. This prohibition was a mercy to thee, friend Hickman!

I did not know this then, but wondered if this was what they had dreamed of squatting helplessly in a ditch until another order came to retire when they swung through the London streets singing "It's a long, long way to Tipperary" two months before.

No, not in my district." Mr Michael Digan "46. Has there been any consolidation of farms in the district with which you are acquainted in the county of Tipperary? No. In my immediate neighbourhood the cottier system of having five or six acres is more practised than in the county of Clare."

The sportsmen of Tipperary, Kildare, Cork and other parts of Ireland, who have to negotiate immense banks, would ridicule the idea of riding at such obstacles on the curb, because no sane person would think of checking a horse in such a manner; and the solid "cope and dash" stone walls of Galway also require to be taken by an animal whose mouth is not interfered with.

Lady Leach and her daughters followed him from Paris to Rome, and from Rome to Baden-Baden; Miss Leggitt burst into tears before his face when he announced his determination to quit Naples, and fainted on the neck of her mamma: Captain Macdragon, of Macdragonstown, County Tipperary, called upon him to 'explene his intintions with respect to his sisther, Miss Amalia Macdragon, of Macdragonstown, and proposed to shoot him unless he married that spotless and beautiful young creature, who was afterwards led to the altar by Mr.

O'Connor of Offaly and O'Carroll had been compelled to sue for peace . In the following year Lord Grey made a tour of the south- eastern parts of Leinster, proceeded through Tipperary, and directed his march against the strongholds of O'Brien of Thomond.

The thunders and the smokes rolled up and diminished and renewed themselves, but the small children romped up and down the old stone steps; the beginner's aeroplane unsteadily chased its own shadow over the fields; and the soldiers in billet asked the band for their favourite tunes. Said the lieutenant of local Guards as the cars went on: "She play Tipperary."

On hearing that they were deserters from the British army, and that, without an exception, they were all Irishmen, who had come to the United States with a view to aiding in any project that had for its object the humiliation of England, and the freedom of Ireland, the landlord, who was a six-footer from Tipperary one of the Cummingses gave "a yell out of him" that brought his wife and children in deshabille to the bar-room door, proceeded by a boy of all work, who evidently shared their alarm and surprise to the fullest extent; but when, instead of a bar-room disturbance, they perceived the master of the premises shaking hands over and over again with the new arrivals, and bidding them welcome to the land of the free, they soon disappeared from the hall and regained their chambers, from which they had been so unceremoniously summoned.

It connects the Limerick road to Tipperary with the old road from Limerick to Dublin, and runs by bog and pasture, hill and hollow, straw-thatched village, and roofless castle, not far from twenty miles.
