 PREFACE.

IT was universally felt that Dr. William Maziere Brady, in his

"Clerical and Parochial R ecords of Cork, Cloyne, and Ross,"
bequeathed to this United Diocese an inheritance of the
utmost value and interest.
In those" Records," he, by his profound labour and learned
research, has rescued from oblivion a large amount of historical
and archreological treasures, which but for his labours would
have never seen the light; and for which our Church owes
him a lasting obligation.
But this valuable work of his terminated at a period in the
history of our Church which was more eventful that he then
dreamed of. In seven years after its termination, the great
upheaval of Disestablishment convulsed the temporal state ot
the Church of Ireland, and entirely altered the condition of
its affairs which ~xisted as he has narrated them.
In the period that has elapsed since the year 1863, when his
work concluded, the inevitable" changes that will surely come,"
have called to their rest the greater number of the then existing
clergy of the Establishment, and with the few of those still
remaining, there are now associated in the work of the Diocese,
under the altered conditions of a voluntarily supported Church,
a body of clergy, of whom, and their individual work, there
is at present no published account, while the great number of
changes that have taken place in the distribution of Parishes,
and the alterations and improvements in Churches and Church
work, vvhich have been so general and extensive throughout
the Diocese during the latter period. are nowhere. circum-
stantially recorded.
My object in the present publication is to endeavour to
supply this want by an effort to carry on a Record of the
United Diocese on similar lines to those adopted by D r.
Brady; introducing nothing already recorded by him, except
so far as was necessary to establish continuity, but taking up
the statistics from where he left them in 1863 . And in this
endeavour, I have to express my sense of obligation, in the
xiv. PREFACE.

first place, to our beloved Bishop, for kindly giving the und",r-
taking the sanction of his authority, as conveyed by his letter.
which I here insert.
" The Palace,
"Cork, March 26th, 1897.
"My Dear Mr. Cole-I am very glad to hear that you are
about to compile the Clerical and Parochial Records of the
Diocese from the close of Dr. Brady's valuable work down to
the present time. There have been many changes since the
date of that publication, and it will be most useful and in-
teresting to have them on record.
" Your undertaking has therefore my cordial approval, and
I am sure that you will receive every assistance from the
clergy of the United ·Diocese.-I am, yours faithfully,
"WM. E ., Cork, Cloyne, and Ross."
"Revd. J. H. Cole."
And, in the next place, I desire to express my thanks to
those of my Clerical Brethren who have lent me their kind
co-operation in furthering this object (which I trust may be of
interest to them and others) by supplying such appropriate
information as was in their power to furnish. As by sucR :lid
alone could it be possible to obtain the necessary information
concerning many matters of'intlJrest pertaining to their several
parishes.
And here I may mention, that what primarily led to my
taking this work in hand, was the circumstance that.I had
from time to time taken an interest in noting in my own
copy of Dr. Brady's" Records," the various changes which
occurred in the ranks of the Clergy of the Establishment, who
were mentioned in his work. So that these notes furnished
the nucleus of matter which suggested, not only a c<mtinuing
of the record, as far ' as it related to the then existing clergy,
but further, the extending of similar information concerning
the later clergy, and the circumstances of their several parishes.
And, believing that such continuation to our own time will be
acceptable to them and to other members of our Church, I
have collated those annotations which I had made, and ha'Te
added thereto all such suitable subject matter as I have been
able to collect.
 PREFACE, xv.

This extension is rendered all the more interesting ,md

important by reason that this period which has elapsed since
then has been one in which such revolutionary changes
have taken place as were caused by the convulsion of the
Disestablishment. And yet, by the Providence of God, not-
withstanding that sweeping away of the temporalities of our
Church, there has taken place since then an unprecedented
amount of improvement in Church property and organisation,
of which it seems desirable some record should be preserved.
In my endeavour to do this, I have closely followed the
system so well arranged in Dr. Brady's work. And the pla.n
I have adopted has been to take up the thread of the record
in each parish where he left it, and thence to carry it on. much
on the same system of arrangement. In so doing, I have
in each instance, as closely as might be, adopted the informa-
tion in this work after the manner in which it was supplied
to me by the Clergy themselves in response to my inquiries.
Consequently, the responsibility for its correctness, or re-
pletion, must chiefly rest with those who have furnished the
several returns. And so, likewise, must 1 plead excuse ior
any errors or deficiencies, on the ground that the information
requested was, in some cases, not adequately supplied. While
in a very few instances, I was not afforded the advantage of
any; and was therefore obliged to seek it as best I could
from other sources, and hence the scant details in these ~
(happily few) instances; and I may add tha't , not only have
I gathered by enquiry and research, the information given in
this work relating to the clergy of the United Diocese durin~
the period included, but I have also had the further advantage
of a personal recollection of by far the greater number of
those clergymen whose names a.re mentioned in these
"Records." And, moreover, having been engaged in clerical
duty for many years all over the United Diocese,under General
Licence, I was afforded exce}3tional opportunty for becoming
acquainted with its various details; so that no small portion
of the matter herein contained is verified by my own knowledge.
I have applied the term" Rector" to all Incumbents ap-
pointed since the Disestablishment.
Believing that it may be considered interesting, I have
XVI. P.REFACE

endeavoured to give, as far as I could ascertain them, the Irish

names of the parishes, and the meaning of each, as such are
generally most significant. These I have. derived from such
authoritie6 as Joyce's" Irish Names of Places," etc. And in
this I owe much to my late. lamented friend, our distinguished
Irish scholar, the learned R evd. Dr. Olden, for kindly afford-
ing me the benefit of his extensive, knowledge of this subject.
In some instances these derivations must be considered con-
jectural, but most of them are undoubtedly correct, resting on
reliable authority.
I have endeavoured by all means at my command, and by
every effort, to ensure thaf the v<lrious particulars here re-
corded should be as correct as pOSSIble; and in the main I
am certain that they are so. And I can only add that if I have
succeeded in collecting and preserving any facts which may
hereafter be found of interest connected with the U nited
Diocese, then, I shall feel that my humble. endeavour, and
work of nearly seven years, in compiling these" Records,"
has not been without its reward.
In conclusion, I desire to repeat my feeling of indebte.dness
to the Lord Bishop of the Diocese for his kindly approval of
my effort; as well as to those of the Clergy who have so
willingly responded to my request for information respecting
their several parishes, their work in the ministry, and matters
of personal or family interest; and from many of whom I
received kindly expressions of goodwill and encouragement.
I have also to record my thanks to Robert Gregg, Esq ..
Dioce~an Registrar; to Robert D ay, Esq., F.S.A., and the
courteous Assistant Secretary of the Diocesan Council, R. St.
J. Lonergan, Esq., for their goodness in affording me much
valuable aid in preparing this work.

Gregg , of Cork, was elected to the Primacy, Dr. Meade

became Bishop-elect of Cork, Cloyne, and Ross. He
was consecrated in St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin, on
January 6th, 1894, a nd was enthroned in St. Fin Barre's
Cathedral on the loth; in St. Faughnan's Cathedral, Ross,
on April 12th ; and in St. Colman's Cathedral, Cloyne,
on May the 29th.
Bishop Meade is of the ancient Irish famil y whose name
was, in old times, spelt "Meagh," or "Miaghe." The
word "miadh ," in Irish, signifies "honour"-"worship"-
"respect," and it must be said of this family, that it well
upholds its traditional title to its ancient na me.
There is another word, "midhiach," pron. "me-ach"
(accent on second syllable), which means "churlish,"
" boorish," "disaglieeable." (I have often hea rd th e con-
temptuous expression, "a me-ach of a fellow"). But, if
this be the derivation, it certainly is totally obscured in
the present in stance.
The Bishop is a member of the present fam ily of Meade,
of Ballintubber and Ballymartle, Co. Cork. H e is the son
of the Revd . \Villiam Meade, R ector of Inchinabaccy ,
Cloyne, by his wife, Anne, dau. of Robert Boyle \ Va rren,
of Kinsale.
\ Villia m Edward Meade passed a very disting uished
collegiate course in T.C.D. He obtained first Science
Scholarship in 1856 ; B.A. (Sen. Mod. Math.) and Diy.
Test. (2nd class), 1857; Bishop Law's Prize, 1857;
McCullagh Prize, 1858; Fellowship Premiums in 1859, '62,
'63, and '64; M.A. 1860; B.D. a nd D.D. 1873. H e was
a R esid ent Master, T.C.D. , 1862-64; and was ord ained
Deacon in 1862, at Chester, a nd Priest in 1863, at Cork, by
Bishop John Gregg.
He was R ector of Ard trea (to which he was presented
by T.C. D.), Co. T yrone, from 1864 to 1893; Preb. of
Mullabrack, in Arm agh Cathedral, 1877-83 ; T reas urer of

St. Patrick's National Cathedral, 1882-85; Archdeacon of
Armagh, 1885-93; Examining Chaplain to Archbi shop

BALLYDELOHER, ALS. KILROAN.

[This parish is variously called in old records. In the " Taxation

of Pope Nicholas" (1291) , it is spelt "Ralyduffloythir" j in
a MS . of 1591, in T.C.D. , it is "Ballidolohir" j in the " Visita-
tion Book of 1622," in Marsh's Library, it is called "Balli-
do.Jloghire." It is often " Ballydeloher, also Kilroan." These
names would seem to mean" the townland of the rushes." It
is also sometimes called (not sO' anciently) "Ballydeloghy," or
"BallyIO'ughy," or "Ballinloghie," which names would mean
"the town land of the loughs." Bishop Dives Downes, in tr.e
16 BALLYDELOHER-B.-\LLYFEARD-BALLYMARTLE. [COl{K.

journal of his tour in 1700, says, " Ballydeloughy is a village

in this parish, from which it is called. " It is commonly called
" Brooklodge." There is a parish near D oneraile called
" Ballydeloughy."]

Meade became R . V. of Aghada, Cloyne, in 1866, and then,
in same year, V. Rincurran, Cork.
1866. THOMAS SAVILLE COLE, Curate of Ballyfeard.
Cole became Curate of Tracton in 1872, and the parish of
Ballyfeard was joined to Nohoval (q. v.)

BALL YMARTLE.
[It is called in the" Taxation of Po-pe Nicholas " (129 1), " Kylmy."
It was also foa-m.e rly called" Martel's, or Marshal's, town," and
also " Kilm edye," or " Kilmiddie," or "Cill Midhe," that is,
" Meade's Church." " The two families (Meade and Martel, or
Marshal) were closely connected" (Olden). In" Bp. D ownes'
Tour," he spells it, "Ballimartell."
Thus, as a voice from these far-off tim.es, this name testifies
to the prominent position which this old Irish family (still
represented in the Squire of the parish) held at a very remote
period in the Irish Church, as ecclesiastical recQrds shew that
it continued to hold, and as it still holds in the person of one
of this same family, the present Bishop of the diocese.]

BALLYM ODAN.
[There is a tradition that this name is derived from the Irish
word" Bad" (pron. "Baudh "), "a boat " j or " Badach" (pron.
" Badaugh "), "having boat!>"; or "Badin" (pron. ." Bad-
haun "), "a little boat," "b" being commonly changed to "m"
by eclipsis (Joyce). And this is a plausible explanation, for,
before the existence of "Bandon Bridge," there were ferry-
boats used here, hence, possibly, "Bally-bodan," "the place
of the little bo'at." Moreover, it is called, in the" T axation
of Pope, Nicholas " (1291), " E cclesia Ballybudan," which seems
confirmatory of this supposition.
I may mention another derivation which has been su@:gested

-that, 'as" Modhaun" in Irish signifies" fool," hence" Bally-

The church popularion of the parish is about 700,
St. Peter's, Ballymodan, Bandon, is one of the finest churches ,
in the South of Ireland. It was consecrated in, 1849, and has
undergone continual improvement since then.
On the fiftieth anniversary of its consecration, 30th August,
1899, a commemoration serviCe' was held, at which laI'ge
numbers of clergy and people were present.
The many features of interest in this fine church are too
numerous to detail fully. Many improvements have been
made in recent times, and largely through the influence of the
present Incumbent. Amongst these may be mentioned-the
chancel greatly beautified by having its entire floor laid in

mosaic of chased design, the gift of the late Capt. Pigott

Beamish, of Queenstown. It is approached by three red
marble steps. The brass Communion rails, and the mosaic of
the sanctuary fioor, are memorials of Jas. Moriarty, of Flora-
ville. The" Eagle " lectern, which is th,e gift of the late Miss
Agnes E. Emerson, sister of the present R ector, is a beautiful
specimen of English bras,s wo'rk. It is a memorial of her
father, Revd. George Emerson. It stands on a broad plat-
form of red marble. Two new prayer desks, of carved oak,
have been recently placed in the chancel1 and new stalls of
oak erected therein. T he backs of these stalls are lined with
old oak panels, which were taken out of a pre-R eformation
Church in England. Their antiquity and quaint carving make
thern a unique feature of th e church. They wer e presented
by the Countess of Bandon. The sanctuary walls have been
arcaded with Caen stone and varied-coloured marble slabs,
with red marble columns, all from Irish quarries" and contain
sedilia of red marble, and a reredos of three panels of gold
moSaics. This beautiful work was the gift of the Countess of
Bandon, whose family have been the chief benefactors to the
sacred edifice, as a memorial of her father, George, seventh
Baron Carbery; also two beautiful panels of gold and coloured
mosaics, with inscription, on the side of window, as a memorial
of her father and mother.
The pulpit is deserving of particular notice, as it is a
beautiful structure of Caen stone, with marble and alabaster
in pillarets, adorned with agates and D erbyshire spar. It is
octagonal, with two storeys of arches. It was erected by sub-
scription as a memo,rial of the late Honourable and Rt. R evd.
Charles Broderick Bernard, D.D" Lord Bishop of Tuam.
The design of this pulpit has been copied by the Anglican
Bishop of Jerusalem for his cathedral there. This, and other
improvements, are the design of J. F. Fuller, Esq., F.S.A., of
Dublin. The church contains many handsome marble monu-
ments 0'£ the Bernards, H ewitts, H oners, Hayes, S'weeny,
Guest, and other families; also many beautiful stained glass
windows, memorials of the Sealys of R ichmount, Clerkes,
Moriartys, and others. The fin e east window is to the memory
of Francis1 third Earl of Bandon. There are numerous mural
tabl ets, and in the church have been placed tl:e old colours of

It was Mr. Fisher who built the church called" Teampul-na-

mboct," that is, "the church of the poor," about midway be-
tween the churches of Schull and Kilmoe. This he did as a
relief work at the time of the terrible famine in 1847, by
means of money which he coll ected fmID England and else-
where. Instead of giving this in alms, he, as far as possible,
gave employment to the poor people----,thus saving many from
starvation-in the building of this church, which was entirely
accomplished by manual labom-nD horses being employed
at it.

The church population is about 250.
The parish church is dedicated to St. Bartholomew. and
(as mentioned by Bishop Dive Downes in 1700) "a high
round uOlwer stands in the south-west corner of the churchyard."
This tower is pe.culiar, .as being the only one in Ireland which
has its base hexagonal, instead of round.
BishOiP Dive Downes says that Kinneigh Church was
"accounted among the Irish very sacred " ; and that there was
a stone in the south-west comer of it, upon which the Irish
solemnly swore; and that "'tis supposed this church was for-
merly a cathedral. "
The present church is a plain, substantial structure, much
improved of late. It is a new building, on a new site, conse-
crated by the name of St. BartholOlnew in 1856. The former
church was called Christ Church, and stood in the centre of
the graveyard. It was taken down, and the stones used for
building the walls fencing the new churchyard. The Revd .
Godfrey Smith tried to save the tower of the old church, but
unfortunately the contractor lli'1.d been too quick, or Revd.
G. S. too slow.

T his parish wa:s a mnS'SlOD district in the parish. of Fanlobbus

s ince 1843. It was served by a C urate in connection with the
"A dditional Curates' Society. " Service was held in a schoolhouse
at Coplkelure, on the property of Col. Shuldham, D.L. It was
licensed by the Bishop of Cork in 1843.
T he church was built mainly b y the exertions of Col. Sh uldham,
and was consecrated in 1865, on the 15th of August, by Bishop
J ehn Gregg, who, contributed £ 500 towards its erection, Col.
Shuldham adding a like sum, the remainder 01 its cost being made
t;p by general subscription. Col. Shuldham has also conferred an
endowment on the parish of £50 per annum, b y a charge on his
property. Bishop J ohn Gregg also presented handsome silver
Communion plate to the church, and a stained glass east window.
T his church, picturesquely situated amid romantic scen ery of
mountai n and lake, is a pretty Gothic structure, consisting of nave,
chancel, b aptistery, to~ver and spire. The rant was presented by

At the termination of his "Records," Dr. Brady wrote, in his

account Oif St. Fin Barre's : "A sum of money has b een subscribed
fo r the erection of a new cathedral on the old site. The plans
have been chosen, and there is a fair prospect that Cork will soon
pc,ssess a decent cathedral-church, in which, it is to be hoped, the
choral service will be used daily throughout the year."
Well, this has since been done, and well done. The prOlject of
re-building the cathedral had been inaugurat ed in 1862 j and the
.following year was set well on foot by Bishop John Gregg, who
directed the fmce of his great energy and personal influence most
zealously to the accomplishment of this work j and on the 12th of
January, 1865, h e laid the foundation stone of the new cathedral,.
which he was spared to see substantially completed j fOF, on the
6th of April, 1878, he had the gratification of laying the topmost·
stones of the western to,wers and spiresL On the 26th of N[av,
following he entered into his rest, and his funeral sermon WM
preached in his cathedral by the much revered Dean Daunt, who
himself was called from his labours in less than a month after.
The work of perfecting the cathedral was continued under
B i~hop R obert Gregg, who laid the topmost stone of the great
tower on the 23rd of October, 1879.
Since then , the cathedral has continued to receive many costly
gifts and additions, and it is now at once a 'splendid memorial of
the self-sacrificing devotion of our churchmen in the South of
Ireland, and the grandest omament in the city by the L ee.
I dOl not think it necessary to enter here more fully into the
subject of St. Fin Barre's Cathedral, but consider it sufficient to
rE'~er to the full and interesting account given of it in the re~en t
valuable work .of the Revd. Andrew Craig R obinson, M.A., R ector
of Ball ymoney, "St. Fin Barre's Cathedral, Historical and Descrip-

tive" (Guy and Co., Cork). But the late much to be lamented
learned and famed archreoJ.ogist, Dr. Richard Caulfield, of Cork,
citlivered a lecture on "The History of the Bishops and Cathedral
of Cork," on the 25th of January, 1864; which is so deeply
ir,teresting and instructive, that I deem it desirable to preserve it
in these " Records," and therefo,r e repmduce it from the report of
same in the "Cork Constitution " at the time, only omitting the
succession of Bishops, as it is given by Dr. Brady in his " Records,"
Vol. III. It will ,ever be read with interest; and who can doubt
tlat its touching description, and truly eloquent peroration, largely
served to arouse in the hearts of the people of Cork the zeal which
accomplished the nOible work for which he so fervently appealed.

"THE HISTORY OF THE BISHOPS AND CATHEDRAL OF CORK."

Dr. Caulfield said-It is to me a privilege and a source of great

pleasure to have the honour of introducing to your notice a few
fr;:,gments rescued from the devouring influence of time, respecting
the history of the Cathedral of St. Fin Barre, and what is known
of his successors. I need hardly tell you that such information
can boast of no originality, and must be collected from crumbling ~

manuscripts, musty records, public as well as private, works now

OIUt of print, and consequen.tly so rare and valuable as to preclude
the possibility of public access to their contentS!,. and only to be
obtained by the kind assistance of correspondents in various places.
cO!l1l.bined with personal observation and research. Of such original
m(terials, I regret to' say, that our city is almost destitute. Every-
body who is but slightly acquainted with the history of Cork m'Ust
k now how many internal dissensions and revolutions it was in fonner
times constantly subject to, so that almost all traces of her eccles-
iGlstical memorials have long since been swept away. Much infm-
mation is still, however, to, be found among the MSS. in the library
uf Trinity College, Dublin; British Museum; State P aper Office;
Bodleian Library, Oxford; and the Chapter House, Westminster, etc.
A~ regards the very early ecclesiastical MSS., many are to be met
with in the Burgundian Library, Brussels, and the Franciscan
College at Rome. I n times of persecution they were removed
frem thi s country, and there carefully treasured. The enquiring
spirit of the present age has opened up the hitherto sealed contents
r)f these repositories to all who are considered capable of making a
proper use of the privilege forr historical purposes. Having had
some experience as a traveller in the highways of the past, I desire
to conduct you back, and endeavour to give you a glimpse into
thCJse ages now enveloped in the night of time, and lead you
, 8

through the twilight of the middle ages, when the unwearied monk
tc.iled, from the rising till the setting of the sun, in the solitary
recess of his cell, many of whom have left behind them prodigious
mc.numents of the power and capabilities of the human intellect.
And as yO!U advance down the stream of time, you will perceive
how the world ever has been progressing step by step, notwith-
standing its countless tumults and revolutions.
There are probably no institutions out of the many noble ones
of wnich our country boasts, that are a greater source of pride to
us than the cathedrals of the British I sles. Ask the Anglo-Catholic
inhabitant of some cathedral town what is the most interesting
object and best worth seeing in his locality, and he will point
forthwith, with significant meaning, to the tower or steeple of ~he
cathedral, as it rises in tliumphant grandeur amid ·the smoke and
chimneys of his manufacturing town. If you should be fortunate
eno ugh to find him in a communicative humour, he may, per-
chance, dwell on the remote antiquity of its founder, the unrivalled
splendour of its architecture, the hallowed memo!1'ies of many suc-
cessions of bishops, abbots, deans, archdeacons, and a host of
minor ecclesiastics who once ministered within its walls and walked
tluough those same aisles beneath the shadow of those numerous
swtely columns that have stood for ages as sentinels under the
lofty roof, and still, with undiminished splendour, direct the wan-
dering eye to heaven. He will also tell you of the magnificence
of the choral service and the choir. If you can induce him to
accompany you to this gorgeous pile; with uncovered head and
reverential gait, he will point to the founder's tomb; and, as on
tip-toe he gently guides you through the lengthy nave, transepts,
and side chapels, he will now and again whisper softly into your
ear, as he points to some mutilated cross-legged eHigy, "here sleeps
the dust of some famou s knight who fought in the holy wars ; in
his day he helped to chase the infidel Saracen from Zion's hill,
trampled on and triumphed over the crescent, and in its s~ea d set
up the cross." This recumbent, mitred figu re, with the crozier
across his breast, oommemor::.tcs some prelate who" tradition says,
was present when the charter of British liberty and rights was
signed at Runnymede. These clusters of rude1y-carved roses call
to remembrance the sanguinary struggles that were sOl long carried
on under the emblem of that fair and fragrant flower. These
kneeling, with the elaborately executed frills, represent the heads
of some noble and illustrious family of the time of Queen Elizabeth.
'T he soldiers of the usurp0l' mutila.ted the inscription, and de-
stroyed the cathedral registers, so· that all record of the owner's
name has long since vanished. Wheresoever yc;m turn, something
 c

CORK.] ST. FIN BARRE'S. lIS

new and strange and wondrous meets the eye of the b eholder,
whilst soft beamsOif light break, witn lustrous beauty, tillougn the
stained windows. Can you wonder at the worihy citiien being
proud of such a temple as this ? Moreover, pcrhaps, within the
s8.cred and silent precincts of its clo'set repo-ses tL'1 e dust of his
forefatners for many g~nerations; and here he fondly hopes tnat
he himself will one day sleep in p eace, when tne troubles of life
ar,; OlVer, and the glorics of his own cathedral shall clo-se on his
eyes forever.
There is another most important light in which we must not
forget to view our cathedral-cl.urches, namely, that they are often
the precise localities where the first Christian missionaries planted
the standard of Christianity, and contended against verj barbarous
and cruel pagan superstitions. It was not tne practice of these
early expounders of Divine . Truth to seek shelter in rer:rrote and
unfrequented places, but witn a fearless and manly indepen.dence
they braved the danger itself, and confronted the heathen priests
on their own grOilllld. Their faith, founded on the Rock of Ages,
overcame difficulties apparently insurmo untable ; tneir hopes,
though often fru strated, seldom failed in their noble object; and
their charity, the essenoe of the divine unction, turned "the hearts
of the disobedient to the wisdom of the just." Thus, faith, hope
nnd charity, all three harmoniously blended, and acting with peIject
unity of purpose, struck at the root of the tree of paganism; its
lEaves quickly fell Oiff, its branches, which heretofore o,vershado,wed
and poisoned the land, dried up and. ,vithered; the trunk perished
and decayed away ; and from its ashes In due time sprang up our
gl orious cathedrals, the landma.rks of Christianity, the honest pride
of om National and Catholic Church and people, from whose altars
h:>.ve gone fortn messengers of peace to all lands, bringing glad
tidings to the ends' of the earth.
As the subject of our discourse is chiefly in connection with the
history of the cathedral of our own city, we shall commence at the
time when th e patron saint of this diocese florurished, namely, th e
first quarter of the seventh century. And here let us for a moment
pause, and t ake a glance at the state Qof E uropean society at that
period. Convulsed with internal struggles', her infant cities reeled
and rocked in the waves of feudal dissensions; darkness covered
all the land; the inhabitants were disu nited, unsettled, and dis-
contented; there was nQo light to guide, no kindly hand to lead
them throlllgh a wilderness of confusion. The first fruits of dawn-
ing civilization, wherever they appeared, were quickly swept away
by the formidable and restless violence of barbaric hordes. H ere
a nd there light shone for a little while, but it was, sp eedily dimmed.
Il6 ST. FI N BARRE'S. LCORK

The votaries of learning and piety sighed for a home, a quiet

resting-place suitable to repose and meditation, little thinking that
an isle in the distant west, like an emerald in the sea, was destine 1.
to b ecome that habitation of sanctity and literature they so ardently
wished for-that upon our own shores they would kindle a flame
that would penetrate the h eathen darkness l and dissipate it, as
mist before the rrrorning sun, and sow the seeds of Christianity
which were to take deep -rooil: in the earth, and eventually flourish
as long as the sun and rrroon endureth.
Of the early history of this country during the seventh and
subsequent four centuries, very little is known. The few scattered
nGltices which can be collected from the annalists and the historian
Bede, give, though short, a melanchoJy catalogue of wars and
pestilences. Many of the incidents recorded by late historians
regarding these early days were derived from traditional sources.
The poets versified, the bards sung, the clansmen committed to
memory. The office of poet was anciently an institution, and
hereditary. H e handed down the achievements of b..is retainers,
magnifying th eir virtues (if any they possessed) in the same ratio
that he diminished their vices. Their productions are valuable
8S illustrating the manners and customs of the age, and will be
always referred to ,,-jth pleasure and profit by the b..istorical student.
The most valuable collection of prose mmals that have come down
to us are those usually known as the "Almals of the Four Masters."
Now, to the institution of cathedral-churches we may also generally
assign the origin of some of our cities. When a large religious
establishment was founded, with its numerous retinue of eccles-
iastics, many persons, from the supposed sanctity of the fo under,
or fo r the purposes of having access to the only available fount ains
of knowledge in those days flocked to its vicinity; numerous dwel-
ling places sprung up all round for the public accommodation;
they, in turn; required the necessaries of life, and as the people
flocked in for the purposes of traffic at first, markets were established
and as they grew into to~vns, merchandize, crafts, and by degrees
civic institutions eventually and necessarily grew out of ecclesiastical
abuses, and thus you will perceive how courts of justice and all
the poEtical economy of modem cities b ecame by degrees de-
veloped. Such was the origin of Cork. The cathedral was the
nucleus of the old city that tradition says was burnt by the Danes,
who, being a maritime as well as a mercantile people, established
'1 new city on the north branch of the river Lee, for the purposes
of and facilities affa.rded by navigation.
This city, about the time of H enry VIIL, extended to' the North
:md South Main streets, and their immediate locality, containing
CORK.] ST. FIN BARRE'S. 117

the two parish churches of St. Peter's and the Holy Trinity, which
in former times were adorned with many ancient monuments to. the
memory of her most illustrious citizens.
St. Barre, the founder of our cathedral, flourished in Cork
between the years 60'0' and 630; at least he exercised the episcopal
office during that period.
[Here Dr. Caulfield narrates the succession of the bisho·p s of
the see (for which vide Brady, Vol. III.), and then proceeds-]
A stately Gothic edifice is now to take the' place of the present
unsightly pile; which, like every other work of an unenlightened
pC"l'iod, must yield to modem improvements. The spirit of the
age is, as before observed, progressive--progressive in literature,
progressive in the fine arts and architecture. Even those who a
few years ago would look with abhorrence on Gothic architecture
in the construction of their places of worship, 'have now put away
the childish follies of fanaticism, and embra:ced the enlightened
sririt of the age. Gothic architecture has been called "the style
of life and liberty "-the magna charta of British art-capable,
like our British constitution, of ever new and perfecting develop"
ment. "It is a style," says Sir Francis Scott, "fm which no
material is too cO'stly, none too humble-whose language and
expression varies with the latitude ; which carves the marble of
H,e sunny south into low relief and shadolw, and scores the free-
stone of the misty north with mouldings deep and hollow; whose
ornament is as varied as the flowers of flie field, and as free as
the ivy to· wander where it will; whose elevations know no law
save that of intelligent adaptation to internal conven ience, and
cl'nformity with the requrements of climate and common sense. "
The splendour of our own cathedral, therefore greatly depends
on our own individual exertions·. Let us take a glance across the
Channel, and visit the sister isle, and there behold the magnificent
structures that are daily springing up scattered broadcast over all
the land, and ask OIurselves are we doang OUf duty to,wards our
religion and country .if we suffer the extensive city and county of
Cork to' be content with a cathedral which the smallest hamlp.t
in England would reject. L et us remember that our credit fo r
liberality, good taste, and sound judgment in the fine arts in this
city of a Barry, a Maclise, and a Hogan, will be judged by our
Ilew cathedral. Moreover, ,t he cathedral is rightly the parish
crurch of the who,le diocese. It has therefore claims on us all;
and we, in tum, have claims on the cathedral; and it is most
natural that the sons and daughters of the Anglo-Catholic Church
should feel a deep and intense interest in their mother church-
the cathedral of the diocese. Let our cathedral, therefore, en-
118 ST. FIN BARRE'S. [CORK.

dowed by the munificence of former prelates, be still more mag-

nificently adorned. Then shall a glQorious temple rise up amongst
us, that will be looked on with pride by generations yet unborn;
when your . children's children "shall enter into its gates with
thanksgiving, and into its courts with praise." And, as its" stately
proportions rise in grace and beauty, so shall all long for the day
to arrive when we ourselves shall hear within its sacred walls "the
pealing anthem swell the note of praise."
For the sake, therefore, of the memory of the good St. Fin
Barre, whose name, after twelve centuries have rolled away, is still
like a household word amongst us; for ,t he sake of the memory of
that gooidly company of apostolic bishops, who fo-r ages past have
ministered in this place, and left so bright an e,,,ample behind
them; and thQough long gone down into the silent gra.ve, still,
through their wo'rks, speak lessons of wisdom. For the sake of
th e memory 0'£ our fo,r efa.thers, who rejo,iced to attend the means
of grace provided here, looking for " the hope of glory." For the
sake of all the hallowed rem~niscences that ever bvine around its
ti mJe-honoured meII1k:lry. For the honour of Co-rk. For the
honour of ourselves and the present generation; but, above all,
for the honolllr of Him whO', though He "dwelleth not in temples
made with hands," yet hath He respect unto the prayer of His
servants- " That Thine eycs may b e open towards this House
night and day; -even toward the place of which Thou has said,
My name shall be there."

were erected to St. Nicholas Church. He also effected much
interior improvements in the edifice. He removed the organ
from the west door to the chancel, and pmvided a pra,yer desk

(formerly in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin), which had been
placed at the south-west of the nave in 1860, was removed to
the chancel; new choir stalls, .sedilia, and a font were erected;
also a large 3-light window in the north transept, to the
memory of the late Mrs. George Webster.
In 1865, a new entrance to the churchyard at Cove Street
was obtained, and handsome gates, with limestone piers, were
erected.
In 1870, a tower and spire and a peal of eight bells were
erected.
In 1875, a r:ew approach was made tot the church. In 1881,
extensive repairs were made to the roof, and other improve-

[In a MS . in T.C.D. , of 1591, it is called "E. Ville Castri,"

,and in the V isitation Book of 1670, it is entered as "E.
Monymandragh, idem cum Castlemagner," which would
mean, "the turf-bog of the mandrake. " ]
Of this parish Dr. Olden says that, "as it is not mentioned
in the 'Pipe Roll of Cloyne,' it probably was not then in ex-
istence. It was formerly pa rt of the once important prebendal
parish of Subulter, and seems to have been carved out of that
parish by the l\Iagners, a powerful family there, who built
the Castle and the Church."
This union consists of the parishes of Castlemagner, Clon-
m een, with Roskeen, Subulter, Ballyclough, with Dromdowney'
Kilbrin, and Liscarroll, and Kilmaclenan .

gone very extensive renovation and improvement within
the last few years. In 1890, a very bea utiful memorial
altar tomb, alabaster, with recumbent figure of Bishop
Berkeley , was placed in it. In 1894, in accordance witil
plans submitted by the D ean to the Ch apter and Select
Vestry, further restora tions and improvements were
effected in this historic ed ifice , of which the following were
some of the principal. The organ, which was in the choir
gallery, at the west end, and the side galleries, which
extended one-third of the length of the choir, were re-
moved . The transept arches, which had been built up in
1774, were r e-opened. The new two-manual organ was
placed in south tra nsept a rch. The old lath-and-plas ter
ceiling was replaced by a very beautiful one of ornamental
pitchpine work. The old s toves, with their uns igh tly
liues, gave place to modern hot-wat er pipes. The new
choir stalls a re of Itali a n oak. The sanctuary floor, which
had been of wood , is la id in hand some mosaic. The new
Holy Table has been presented by the Canons of the
Cathedr al, and is from the d esig n of the Revd. John
B rougham , M.A., Canon of Glenore, and R. Monkstown,

' Vilkin son, D.D. The cost of these improvements, by
which the cathedral h as been greatly beautifi ed, has ex-
ceed ed £1,300. On the 18th of March, 1900, a very
beautiful brass lectern, presented by the Dean and Mrs .
Fleming, in memory of two of their children, was dedi-
cated by the Bishop of the diocese.
Extensive im provements have a lso been effected in the

that building existed, viz., as a place where the Sacred Fire
was kept by the nuns of the order of St. Bridget, whose
duty it was to keep alive a fire which at all times the
Chri sti a n community ' could have access to when they
wanted it- as also where they were to kindle their Easter
fire, a fter it h ad been quenched on Good Friday, and
remained so till Easter Morn. Under the south wall of
this Fi re Hou se there was found a vault, shaped to that
of a human body, with a place for the head and neck at
the west end of it; and in tha t was found the skull in
its place; and in the east, the bones of the rest of the body.
Stone coffins of similar shape had been found in the
Ca thedral wh en the fo und ation of the preSelit SCreen wa3
laid , d ividing the nave and choir.
Th e Dean also obtained the old font of Aglish Church,
dio. Cork. It is one of great antiquity-pre-Norman. In
some Engl ish churches may be seen ones exactly similar.
It is the giJt of the Revd. Richard- Hingston, whose fa mily
were so much connected with the cathedral of Cloyne. It
was found in a field a t some distance from the late church
CLOYNE·l CLOYNE-COOLE. '93

of Aglish, and about where the ancient church had stood,

the foundation of which had sunk into the ground and
disappeared, and with it the old font, which was di s-
covered by a plough striking against it. It was a good
deal injured by the treatment it was subj ected to; but it
is safely deposited now in a corner of the cathedral a isle,
with a n inscription recording its recovery.
In the D ean 's custody are also some old diocesan papers
of interes t- Bishop Crowe's Visitation List, and oth ers.
Some valuable MSS . h ave likewise come to his hand s on
the death of the la te Precentor Moore, LL.D. -papers con-
nected with the struggles of the bi shops of Cloyne to
recover the episcopal la nds from the Fitzgeralds, who h ad
illegally seized them, a nd other families who had wrongful
though legal possession of them. It would be well if
these could be deciphered a nd preserved .
W . R. Crook-Lawless, Esq. , and Mrs. Crook-Lawless,
of Kilcrone, have put up a m emori al window in the east
of the north tran sept of the cathedral, in memory of Mrs.
Crook-Lawless' mother , by whom the north w indow was
put up. It is of a very beautiful desig n, in stained g lass,
the subject being Faith, Hope, and Charity. It is the
work of Mayer a nd Co. , of London a nd Munich. There
a re few spots of more interest and beauty in a ny building in
Ireland than thi s north tra nsept, und er whose floor li e
generations of the ancient families of F itzgerald a nd
O'Brien, Lords of Inchiquin and Thomond , the Bishops,

The parish church of Doneraile (St. Mary's) is now the

It is prettily situated on the river Awbeg, a tributary of
the Blackwater
According to the learned Revd. Dr. Olden, the dedica-
tion of this church is "the Nativity of the B. V. M."
Tcmpleroan is dedicated to St. Ruadhan (pron. Ruan) of
Lorrha, 3n Co. Tipperary. He thinks D'oneraile must
have been a later formed parish. The name does not
occur in the "Pipe Roll" of Cloyne; and its not being
dedicated to an Irish saint is a further proof.
The following inscription is cut upon a stone slab set
in the western wall of the tower of Doneraile Church: -
"This Church was first built by the Right Hon. Sr. William
St. Leger, the Lord President of Munster, anno Domini

At Ballyvourney , close to the church, there is the old
ruin of the Abbey of St. Gobnet, and in a hole in the wall
there is a round stone fixed, which is rubbed quite smooth
by the country people, who rub the stone, and then the
sore eyes or other affected part, believing that it possesses
curative vi rtue. Hundreds (sometimes thousands) of
people repair to the abbey to pay "rounds" to the saint.

MAGOURNEY AND KILCOLMAN .

[Kilcolman is (St.) "Colman's Church." I have no clue to

the derivation of Magourney. "Guairnein" is "a whirl-
wind." May it be, "the Plain of the 'iVhirlwind"?]

The parish of Magourney (which was formerly also called

"Mogallowe"), was, since 1717, united by Act of Council to
that of Kilcolman, which latter was also called "Rathlearney."
The ruins of Kilcolman Church still exist in Dripsey demesne.

Earl of Desmond in his rebellion, in the reign of Elizabeth,
and continued in a bad state until the time of the laie
Rector, Pi erce William Drew, who earned the well-merited
appellation of "Instaurator Ruinc.e" by his judicious re-
storation of thi s venerable edifice, at large cost, and
personal .sacrifice.
In 1871, the church was re-pewed, the old square pews
g-iving place to mod ern open benches ; and the porch
reconstructed , all" a t the cost of about £250.

In the year 189+, the organ was removed to the chancel,

and much enlarged and improved. The chancel was tiled
in a very beautiful manner, and received handsome carved
oak benches, and seats for the choir, and two beautiful
prayer desks. These im provements cost £800. At the
sq:m e time, a handsome carved oak lectern was presented
by a .pari shioner, and three fine stained g lass memorial
windows presented, which cost about £600. Another
prayer desk of carved oak has since been placed in the
chancel, and these three desks are rendered very interest-
ing, as they contain three ancient carved oak panels,
which have been preserved from the thirteenth century.
Divin e Service is held twice on Sundays and chief festi-
vals, also a Children's Service at 3.30. Holy Communion,
first and third Sundays, and also at 8 a. m. , on chief
festivals.

The present Rector holds a "good ser vice" pension.
The parochial school is the " South Abbey " National
School, having 65 children on roll. There is also an

Men's Association, with abo ut 60 members; a Protestant
Asylum, built by subscription in 1834, in which there are

Mr. Bell's death was terribly tragic. On the evening
of Saturday, 1st November, 1902, he was found appar-
ently burned to death in his hay-barn. The first supposi-
tion was that his paraHin lantern exploded and set fire to
the hay. But this supposition soon gave place to evident
proofs that he was murdered, for, although his remains
were much consumed, there was sufficient to indicate
violence, and his head had evidently been cut off, and
could nowhere be found. Suspicion attaching to a man
named Andrew Moore, in his employment, he was tried
and convicted at the Cork spring assizes, 1903, but the
capital sentence was commuted to penal servitude for
life.

ROSS.] RATHBARRY , 28 5

In 1902 a Celtic cross of wonderful size and beauty was

erected in the demesne of Castle Freke by Mary, Lady
Carbery (and by her in a great measure designed), to the
memory of her husba nd, the ninth Baron of Carbery, in
accordance witll whose expressed desire his remains were
cremated, and this cross erected where his ashes rest.
It would be impossible in a brief notice to give any
adequate description of this great work of art. It is the
largest memorial cross in Ireland; and standing 30 feet
in height, and placed on the summit of Croghna Hill ,
opposite the treacherous submerged rock of that name, on
which many a fair sh ip has met her doom, it forms a con-
spicuous beacon for mariners on the ocean, of which it
commands a magnificent view, being visible from the
Fastnet on the west nearly to the Old Head on the east.
It is formed of three pieces of white limestone marble-
the whole being about 14 tons in weight. The shaft con-
tains seven panels, on which are richly-sculptured designs
representing various Scripture scenes- ' 'The expulson
from Paradise"; "the Annunciation"; "the Visit of the
Magi"; "the Home of Jesus "; "the Good Shepherd";
"Christ Walking on the , iV aters"; and "the Agony in
the Garden."
Then, on the great circle-emblem of Eternity-is de-
picted the scene of "the Crucifixion." It is also enriched
on all sides with numerous carvings, representing angels,
passion flowers, scollop shells, animal heads, winged
griffons, Irish deer, wolfhounds, various birds, and beauti-
ful interlaced work; and one panel contains the figure of
St. Faughnan, the patron saint of the diocese of Ross.
Upon it, too, are the emblems of the four Evangelists-the
"Scribe," the "Lion," the "Ox," and the "Eagle," and
in the centre of these is the "Dove"-emblem of the Holy
Spirit. There also is the figure of Ireland's Apostle, St.
Patrick; while on the top of the cross is the shrine, sup-
posed to represent the Tabernacle in the wilderness.
On the four faces of the base are the following inscrip-
tions: On the east face-"To the greater glory of God ,
and in loving memory of Algernon William George,
9th Baron Carbery, ~ho was born IX . September,
MDCCCLXVIII . and who died XII . June, MDCCCXCVIII. This
Cross has been erected by Mary, his wife, MCMI. The
souls .of the righteous are in the hand of God, they are in
peace. "
286 ROSS -RATH BARRY. [ ROSS.

On the north face-"Unto Him that loved us a nd

washed us from our sins in Hi s own blood, be glory for
ever and ever."
On the west face-"God so loved the world, tha t H e
gave Hi s onl y begotten Son, th a t whosoever believeth on
Him should not peri sh, but have everl as ting life."
On the south face- " I know Him who m I have believed,
and a m persuaded that H e is abl e to keep tha t which I
have committed unto Him again st th at day ."
This great cross of Carbery, whi ch stands sublime on Croghna
Hill, exceeds in weight and height even the famous cross of
Monasterboice, while it is unsurpassed in t he originality
and beauty of its design .

Precentor Morga n describes some of his terrible experi.
ences at the time of the fearful famine in 1846-47, when
he was Curate of Glengarriff; of which (though perhaps
scarcely within the scope of these "Records") it may be
thought interesting to make a brief mention, as those who
remember that dreadful visita tion a re becoming very fe,,".
The g reater portion of the poorer country people, who
at that time had become very numerous, depended for
their subsistence almost entirely on the potato, and when
tha t supply collapsed almost suddenly, from the effects of
th e blight in 1846, the poor people were brought to a
state of literal starvation-for no cereals were grown.
Having neither employment nor money, they tried to sup-
port existence on roots, and seaweed, and on fish, if they
could get it. Then, as a natural consequence, pestilence
followed fa mine and bad food. The awful fever broke
out, dreadfully infectious to all in the way of it-those who
tri ed to relieve the di stress falling victims on all sides.
The peopl e di ed by thousands-whole fa milies perishing
-often none to bury them. Mr. Morgan says that he has
seen as ma ny as seventy dead t aken in a week from the
Bantry wcrkhouse, which could hold only 400, and buried
in pits, without coffin s being thought of---{)r sometimes one
coffi n being made to do duty for many, by being brought
back fro m the grave.
The utmost efforts were made to relieve this dire dis-
tress- soup kitchens were set up in various places, and
supplies of Indian meal a nd rice obtained, when possible,
by such subscription s as could be got from kind people in
England a nd at home ; which. thoug h wholly inadequate
to supply the wants, was still th e means of preserving
the lives of thou sand s.
Ma ny of the clergy fell victims to the famin e fever. So
loathsome was it to he a mong the poor peopl e where they
assembled- sta rving a nd horribly filth y- that it was
sca rcely endura ble- "Iike walking through a charnel house"
most pestilential- a nd, of course , th e risk of infection
was terrible- as it pro ved in hundreds of cases.
Though the Governm ent opened reli ef wO'rk s in ma ny
places, the people were often unable either to come to them
or to work , so wasted were they by hunger and sickness.
But for private benevolence, which was extended la rgely
from E ngl and, thousands more would have di ed. ]Vrr.
 33 2 11'D EX.

Morgan himself collected £250, which he utili sed as best

he could- but the difficulty was to get food for the money.
It is, happily, difficult, in the better times in which we
live, even faintly to im agine the fearful condition of the
whole South of Ireland a t tha t time. But its horrors were
greatest in those pa rts of the west of the County Cork,
where whole districts were left almost without inhabita nts.
