    Mass Held For Dead of Army and Navy Largely Attended
    New York, May 24.-There was a large attendance at the military field mass in the Brooklyn navy yard today.
    As early as 9 o'clock the people began to gather at the navy yard gates although the mass was not to begin until 10:30. Every building facing the parade ground where the mass was celebrated was adorned with American flags and a profusion of the fags hung over the balconies of the marine barracks, before the center of which the elaborate altar wast erected.
    Before the mass there was music, both religious and secular, ranging from "Onward Christian Soldiers" to "Auld Lang Syne," "Annie Lauri," and "Marching Through Georgia."

Soldiers relaxing in the barracks, Bells Paddock, Enoggera training camp, 1916

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Enoggera Barracks (also known as Gallipoli Barracks) is an Australian Army base in the northwestern Brisbane suburb of Enoggera in Queensland. It was officially established in the early 20th century when the area was used for field training, although the area was used by military units as far back as the mid-19th century. Since then it has been developed into a modern military base, which is now home to units of the 7th and 11th Brigades as well as the headquarters of the 1st Division and the 16th Aviation Brigade.

    Captain E E Lysaght's brother had died/been killed about a year previously. A letter of condolence from the officers of the National Volunteer Barracks at Raheen Manor was published in the Limerick Echo of Tuesday 19 January 1915 signed by Captain Charles Phillips, along with a reply from Captain Lysaght.
  • John Spooner said:
    Raheen Manor belonged to the Lysaght family. Country Life on Saturday 16 March 1912 had a picture of a pine marten which had been found in a trap by Mr E Lysaght "on the estate of his father, Mr. S R. Lysaght, Raheen Manor, County Clare"

    And the Lysaghts made their money with Iron. About the war poet S. L. Lysaght, Newcastle Journal of Wednesday 31 March 1915 says "Mr Lysaght is a member the iron firm that bears his name, and has residences at Backell Down Hall, Somersetshire, and at Raheen Manor, County Clare, Ireland. "
