I think she's actually giving that horse some sort of gypsy curse or the evil eye or similar.

This hotel was mentioned by Samuel Carter Hall in A Week in Killarney (1858) and it is said to have been known as a hotel in 1840. Slater's Commercial Directory named only three hotels in Tralee and three in Killarney in 1846 and Carter Hall named one hotel and a comfortable inn in Waterville in 1858, by which time there were seven hotels in Killarney. They were named and their positions given by Fraser in 1854. Some day the Tourist Board should write the history of tourism in Kerry.

Slater's Directory noted the hotels in Killarney and Tralee which were Post Houses as well and he gave the times the post carriages left for destinations such as Cahersiveen. Cahersiveen was an important destination for commerce and a great deal of the Glenbeigh Hotel's business would have come from being a Half Way House on the way from both Tralee and Killarney. Lawrence would have known very well that he was in Glenbeigh but he possibly titled this picture in a slightly slipshod and hasty way.
