Letter to the Editor.
Browne's Hill, Carlow.
27th January, 1920.
- Sir---I see by your last week's issue that I was shown as
elected as a Unionist member of the Carlow Urban District
Council.
- I beg to point out that I stood as representative of the
Comrades of the Great War, an organisation, which is strictly
non-political. ----
- Yours faithfully,
- Robert Browne-Clayton, Browne's Hill House.

"Carlow Unionism in the Quicksands"
Letter to the Editor.
Sir----In your issue of last week Lieutenant
Colonel Browne-Clayton repudiated the publication of his name as a
Unionist in connection with the recent Carlow Urban Elections. He
says he stands as a "representative of the Comrades of the Great
War" and for the life of me I cannot understand why such an
association can be interested in local municipal life. Why did not
the gallant Colonel issue an election address stating what he was
proposing to represent.
- Is County Carlow Unionism in the Quicksands ?---
- Yours truly,
- UNIONIST.

Nationalist. August 1920.
FFRENCH ---In sad and loving memory
of Gunner John Ffrench R.F.A., Castle Hill, Carlow, killed in action
in France, August 22nd, 1917.
- Day by day we sadly miss him,
- Words would fail our loss to tell,
- But in heaven we hope to meet him,
- Whom on earth we loved so well.
- Inserted by his loving mother, brothers and sisters.
