Mr M. Melvin (or is it Monsieur Melvin? probably not) advertised the Moy Hotel in Mayo Examiner - Monday 13 July 1868. This is the earliest mention I could find in the BNA

The building itself has a rich history, having previously served as part of the British garrison in Ballina during the 1798 rebellion and later as a townhouse owned by Brig-General Oliver Paget Bourke

Mr French / Lawrence was up high on something; probably not the Penneys building across the street.

Halle-flippin-lujah she's back. I've been like a junkie all week suffering withdrawal symptoms. Believe me "Cold Turkey" is not a nice state to be in. Welcome back Carol and I hope thats the end of the leave for this year?
Swordscookie said:
There's an awful lot of weight at the rear of that car and that gentleman in particular. A lot of it is behind the back axle and it could make life interesting going up a steep hill. Imagine travelling on that in a downpour?
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Swordscookie Lovely to be back! But afraid not on the leave front. Don't know how to break this to you gently, so you'll have to be a brave soldier - I'm going away again next week (feast or famine!)... But then I'll be around for ages, no flitting off on tourist cars for me! Though if this picture was taken today, the poor tourists would still be huddling in blankets. Brrrr and boooo to the arctic winds!

Crowded buses even then.

Michiel2005 Wonder if it was the same back then - that you waited for ages and then two came along at once?
