To the Editor Tuam Herald Birchfield, Kilkenny, March 15, 1909. Dear Sir - Would you be kind enough through the medium of your widely-read newspaper to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude for the beautiful trophy which was presented to me on March 9th at Athenry. I need hardly say that it will always make me remember the hospitality and kindness which I received during my Mastership from sports-loving inhabitants of that county, as well as recalling many a glorious day's sport. Yours very truly, Isaac Bell
