Revisiting College Street in Killarney

    Great town, lots to see with the Lakes of Killarney just down the street. Lots of entertainment and many, many nice stores to shop in. We have always like it there and have stayed in a hotel just down the street sitting on the edge of the Lake. M Maloney

    Where is everybody? Usually there are lots of comments by the time the photo gets to me.

    Daniel McLaughlin I think the Púca may have frightened them all away!
  • John Sanders said:
    This could be a small town in Texas at that time as well!

    Is that not just a Leinster harp on account of them being from New Ross?

  • Gerry Ward said:
    The ‘Stars & Stripes’ flag does not appear to be any one of the normal variations that would have been in existence before the end of the nineteenth century. The star arrangement differs from any of the established arrangements at that time!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    No Kirwans, Laffans or Byrnes on the parade according to the census of 1901 or 1911.

    The turkeys just thought they were off for a merry jaunt!? ;)
  • Swordscookie said:
    This is a classic and a great image of the time that was in it. The turkeys were stopped the same way they are today with string on wings and feet as morrisoxfordV says, or else each in tied sacks. The one thing for sure is they were all fresh! Apropos your tags - I see lots of 'yokes' if you know what I mean but no yokes. Have you see something I've missed? I know I'm getting to be like a bat but I can see what matters - usually!

    Excellent shot !
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Swordscookie You've caught me out again! Wasn't entirely sure about yoke, but hadn't time to check (and playing Devil's Advocate with myself, decided that yoke has endless meanings in Hiberno-English). Thought yoke was the sticky outy (technical term) bit of the cart either side of the horse or donkey. Just googled and yoke is apparently more the double collar of oxen, etc. So, what are the sticky outy bits called?

    Shafts, I believe!?
