The Carlow Sentinel. Saturday March, 15th, 1919. At Monday's Carlow Petty Sessions before Mr. J.C.Ryan, Resident Magistrate and Sir Deny's-Burton, a licence was granted to the recently formed "Comrades of the Great War" Club in Carlow. The club , which has a large membership is now in full working order in their well-equipped rooms, in Burrin Street. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Nationalist , 11th August, 1919. Letter to the Editor. Dear Sir---- We have all heard of the proposed Irish War Memorial to be erected at a Soldiers' Club in Dublin in memory of those brave Irishmen who fought and fell in the recent war : in this club there is to be kept a complete roll of honour of all these giving the name and regiment of each man. I am anxious to obtain from the Queen's County at least £1.000 for this excellent object. The population of our county taken at the last census amounted to 54,000. If 20,000 of these gave one shilling each , we would have our £1,000. If more were given, of course a larger sum would be obtained. I should be glad to have the names of any friends who would be willing to collect in their own districts and to send me the total amounts. I am Dear Sir, Yours Faithfully, Algernon Coote, His Majesty's Lieutenant in the Queen's County. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Nationalist, 31st January, 1920. 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Nationalist, 7th Feb. 1920. "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.
