In Kickham's Country
'Oouyrlnnt. 19tB. by V. . I'huqtuan.
Tho loveliest, most beloved of Irish
writers tho ono that best knew our
people, and felt for, and felt with, our
puoplo, nnd who accordingly found
tholr hoarts was undoubtedly Charles
Klckhatu; nnd his bcnutlful novel of
homely Irish llfo, "Knocknngow, or
tho Homes of Tlppcrary," Is tho most
dearly-prized story In Ireland.
Finding myself in tho south of Iro-lan-1
I must needs mt'Vo pi grimage to
tho Kickham countrj nd that was
why, on a beautiful SuUay afternoon
of Mcy, I bowled along a road, pass-
ln.g a half-acro field which is popu
larly supposed to bo in no county,
though tlireo counties run up to Its i
three fences. Tho sight of a big, baro,
gaunt building, with roof broken nnd
wlndowlcss, grinning llko a death's
head at tho passer-by, soon afterwards
arrested my career.
"What is it?" I asked of a country
boy.
" 'TIs a house, sir, that wns built by
a chap from America five-and twenty
Tonrs ago."
"And did ho desert it?"
"Faith, ho had to!"
"Why?"
"Well, he built tho houso upon gen
tlo (fairy) ground, and from the day
tho roof went on it, it was crammed
full o thlm lads." He accompanied
thp reference to ''tnlrn lnds" with a
jerK ot nis tnumn over snouiaer. An
they neither glvo him palce, night nor
day."
"And ho wont back to America
again?"
. "No, then ho went to tho dlvll."
Mulllnahonc, a quiet, out-of-the-world
village where Charles Kickham spent
almost all his life, was entered by n
street that presented tho appearance
of having had .all haunted houses, for
most of them were roofless, nnd all
of them wlndowlcss, presenting a!
ino3t melancholy appearance. ,
All the houso owners on this street
I found, lator, had been ovlctod al
most a quarter of a century ago, bo-c-auso,
in tho Land league days, mak
ing a bold stand for tho sake of other
than themselves, they gave thdlr ad
herence to tho "No Rent" manifesto,
adopting tho plan of campaign, they.,
woro summarily bundled out by the
landlord and their houses wrecked. 1
spoke to ono of them who, fortune fa
voring, had managed to acquire a
shop In another part of the village
and to prosper again. He told mo that
almost all of the ovlcted tenants were
still living, or trying to llvo, In or
around Mulllnahono, and were expect
ing soon to bo reinstated In their
property, and to resume tho happy
life they had known ero, for principle's
aake, they wero cast upon the world.
These bravo follows, and many an
other band 111: them In other parts or
Ireland, aro crippled heroes of tho
land war. It was their readiness to
sacrifice themselves, and their actual
sacrifice, which, an object lesson to
tho landlords of Ireland, showed them
what the Irish tenants wero prepnred
to do brought landlords to their
lenecs, and Baved tens of thousands,
aye, hundreds of thousands of their
rack-rented fellowB throughotit the
land. It wns their action, too, that
forced from tho British government
fresh land acts nnd loft their happier
fellows In ensler nnd cheaper posses
sion of tho Innd. Theso evicted ten
ants bands of whom are to be found
In various part of Ireland nobly
Htaked their all in defense of the cause
and lost. Yot thoy suffered, nnd
suffered In silence like the bravo men
they were, and It was their triumph
to seo that though they lost, all Ire
land won.
"Is it do I know Charlie Kick?" said
a young man upon the street to whom
I put a question. "Well," reflectively,
with a loving Bhako of his head. "I
think I did. 'TIs many's the time
when I was a lltt'o bare-footed gor
soon, njcsolf an' the other little lads,
when wo wero playing hlde-and-seok,
would go In and out under the table
lio was wrltln' on In the garden." Ills
ye kindled when ho heard from inv
lips the name beloved. And I observed
tho Barao ,whon I mentioned Kick-
liam'a name to any other of tho vil
lagers. Howsoever Indifferent they
might bo in answering questions on
other subjocts, I had but to mention
Kickham and they oponed tholr hearts
to mo
When I wont to tho chapel-ynrd to
visit tho gravo of the poet and novel
1st I was followed by a few of his old
Fenian comrades and disciples .who
had got wind that a stranger, much
Interested In "Charllo Kick," had nr
rived In tho village. They shook mo
warmly by tho hand, and ono of them
whoso head was frosted by 70 win
ters and more, but who wns still of
erect carrlago nnd bright eyo, showed
plainly that hla heart glowed, Blnco n
stranger had Journeyed from afar to pay
homage to tho momory of his hero
aim! leader. Theso men took oft their
lu(t8 nnd knolt by tho graveside with
mo and prayed ntlll another prayer
for him whom they had honored and
loved him who, his hopes for Iroland
unfulfilled, his yearnings unsatisfied,
his long and trying Btrugglo uncrown
d with success, nt length laid his
hones to moulder under this green
eod. These men, who now put up to
Cod a prayer above his grave, had
taken from Charles Kickham tho oath
to answer their country's call, and
were to have stood sldo by sldo with
him In the gap of danger when free
dom's tocsin sounded tho call to arms.
Dut cro their (ond dream could bo ac
complished they were fated to seo
their hero claimed, first by a British
prison and then by death.
As I looked up to tho Celtic cro3s
hat was reared abovo tho patriot's I
gravo I noticed some straws sticking!
out from tho clrclo which bound tho
arms, nnu, climbing nioit to sntisiy
myself, discovered thnt thero n black-1
bird had built a nest In which two
lovely black-spotted, green eggs lay
innocently. It touched mo to find thnt
tho beautiful songster of our glens
had reioscd her loudest trust thus In
tllo arm of tho dead patriot's cross.
And 1 Instantly recalled, too, that
charming Incident in his most charm
ing novel, whoro "Wattlotdcs" wheed
les the sllco of plumcnko from Willio
Kearney by dangling before him tho
prospect of bolug shown "a thrlsho's
nest with flvo young wans feathered
an' all," when Chrlstmns snows wero
on tho ground. Tho blackbird thnt
built her nest and laid her eggs abovo
Charlos Kickham's grnvo did him n
grcnter ' honor even than tho loved
onc8 WUo ijftod over him tho beautiful
cross.
I was curiously reminded of our old
friend "Wnttlotoes," when a lady, who
spoko with affection of Kickham nnd l
of Mulllnahono a Kilkenny woman-
told mo an Incident that happened In
her youth. A stmplo herd boy of her
father's, who hatted from Mulllnahonc,
presented himself for confirmation at
their parish chapel, but tho poor boy
mndo such a hopelessly bad showing
wlun tested on his religious knowl
edge that Father Mat, Impatiently
Jumping from his Bent cried out: "Is
thero a Sod at all in Mulllnahono?"
To which tho poor boy, anxious to bo
as accommodating as possible, meek
ly and sincerely replied: "No, your
roverenco, thero Isn't any."
Tho reply would havo done credit to
"Wattletoos." Apropos of tho same
subject If I may still wander I can
not forbear setting down hero a more
recent confirmation story which 1
then henrd, and which was also truly
Wattletoos like:
"Hilly Klrwan," said Fathor Tom,
quoting n question from "Tho Prin
ciples of Christian Doctrine," on -which
ho was examining tho class, "what Is
tho first thing you should do upon ris
ing In tho morning?"
"Tackle tho donkey, father," roplled
Hilly, "an' drive to tho cralinory."
1 strolled through tho few streets
of Mulllnahono, n quiet, lovely, home
ly village, whoro ono might cnstly pic
ture all tho fun nnd nil tho sympathy,
and all tho warm-henrtedness of Kick
ham's "Knocknngow" still flourishing
In tho breasts of this kindly people.
I went through Kickhnm's old house,
now Inhabited by a Mr, Norton, one of
the ovlcted tonants referred to, nnd
ono who very kindly showed mo nbout
and told me of Kickham's haunts and
habits. I sat by the fresldo where
the gentlo poet nnd hot revolutionist
had had his eyesight impaired, and fnr
more seriously, his hearing, by n pow
der explosion; and I walked In the
garden where tho novelist had walked
as ho thought out his plots; and 1
sat in tho shady bower where ho had
sat whllo ho penned them; and 1
journeyed to tho threo ash trees be
yond tho town to which Kickham
Journeyed every evening; and I sat
In tho fork of the trees where ho WnB
wont to sit in meditation.
Tho white-haired tailor, who lived
opposite to Charles Kickham's house,
hearing that an ndmlrcr of Charlie's
had come to town, sent mo pressing
messages to como and see him, nil
Impatient to talk of his old friend
whom ho loved and admired. When I
visited him ho particularly pressed
upon mo In order that I might take a
copy from It" a faded portrait of the
patriot which had been presonted to
him by tho patriot's brother. On his
hero's shining qualities tho old tailor
lovingly dwelt, whllo tho moist gleam
of sorrow shone In his eyo.

tho Mulllnahonc boy who camo to bid

And something for you to do. Maybe,"
ho would add significantly, "Ireland

All tho Klekhams bravely stroTO to
bring nigh tho hour when Ireland
snoum can to tnom nnu an nor sons

Kicks" wero equa'ly patriotic, but
Charles, tho Idol, wns ablo to glvo his
patriotism undying expression. He
was, nnd Is, a prophet in his own
country, nnd In remote corners of Ire
land; nnd, Indeed, in far corners of
ho world whoro vor exiled Irlshmon
nnvo strayed, hearts boat that know
nnd lovo him well nnd fondly as do
those denr ones In his own beloved
Mulllnahono.
When lils lawyer nnnounccd to the
Felon Kickham In tho dock of Green
street courthouse, on tho eventng of a
dnrk January dny of 'CG, thnt tho no
torious Judgo Kehoo had Just ordered
him 14 years' penal scrvltudo for tho
crime of loyalty to his country nnd
disloyalty to hla country's enemies,
It Is recorded that ho henrd the sen
tence with n smilo. On being, after.
wards asked what ho missed most in
jail, Kickham replied: "Children, and
women, nnd flros."
Father Mat Russell tells how very
fond ho wns of little children, and
how well ho knew to win their hearts.
He quotes one of Kickham's lntlmnto
friends as saying: "It delighted him
when tbo llttlo ones trlod to talk to
him on tholr fingers, and bo wns moBt
patient in teaching them." Children
who loved him wero playing about his
feet in tho sunshine when tho otroko
of paralysis fell on him. This testi
mony agrees well with thnt of Martin
Bolgor. who had told mo how tho
table In tho garden on which tho nov
elist was writing had often Borved
him as a covering in tho game of hldo-
and;Bcek. Father Russell tells us how
that, nt tho Dublin exhibition' In 'G4,
Kickham llngored long before a pnlnt-
lng "Tho Head of n Cow," by ono of
tho old mnstors not on nccount of
nny subtlo genius ho discovered In it,
but "because it was so llko an old cow
In Mulllnahono." Solf-rovenlcd In that
ono llttlo sentence stnnda tho lover,
pobt, nnd pntrlot, Charles Kickham
may whoso soul rest in tho garden
of Cod!
SUDDENLY DAWNED ON HIM
Took Scotsman Some Time, but Ho
Finally Savy the Joke, or Thouoht
He Did.
An American and a Scotsman i7ro
on a walking tour. Ono afternoon
they camo upon n rural, finger-post
bearing tho following words beneath
the customary directions:
"Thoso who can't read can lnqulro
tho way of tho blacksmith at tho cor
nor."
This Intimation appealed strongly to
tho American's sonso ot humor, nnd
he chuckled dollghtedly.
"What nro you laughing nt?" de
manded his companion.
So the American drew attention to
tho notice. The Scotsman read It
gravely two or throe tlmos, nnd final
ly observed that It wa3 very thought
ful of somo ono to havo put It thero,
but he quite failed to seo why it
should call for any great outburst of
merriment.
His friend laughed nil tho more at
this, and tho Scot, feollng that ho had
missed something, becamo engrossed
In thought.
Soon afterward tho travelers
reached tholr destination, and, having
supped, retired to their rospoctlvo
roomB. But somowhoro in tho small
hours of tho morning tho American
was nroused from his slumbers by a
loud knock at his door, and in walked
the grave-faced 8cot.

stretched so large as to wear a spool

such unimportant Intrusions.
At this mnrket nre brought all the

object of trade. As It is cattle at our

or turkeys in Spain, so It is dogs In
tho Igorroto country. Tho dog Is the

It Is reported that not more than
