(Continued from page 1)
companiment were indeed pleas
ing.
Mr. Gaffney’s fine (but not

Lammas Fair” — another concert
high point. Final number was a
traditional, “The Harp That Once
Through Tara’s Halls.”
Kitty permitted only one en
core—a disappointment to the
first, second and third generation
Irish listeners and the hordes of
Scandinavian, German and Eng
lish descent who comprised the
audience.
“That was our concert,” ex
plained Kitty to O’Neillites, who
were spoiled in the initial Com
munity Concert 14 months ago
when the great American tenor,
James Melton, sang on and on.
It was a concert of beauty, both
in sound and sight. It was a pos
itive description of the Irish peo
ple who always find a silver
lining.
At a smorgasbord following the
concert, O’Neill’s H. E. Coyne,
who vistied Ireland two years
ago, asked Mr. Agnew:
“Would you happen to know a
Mr. Parker who lives at the
Gresham hotel in Dublin?”
“Yes, I do,” replied the tenor.
“He’s my uncle. I was raised on
his farm.”
