My mother told me about this long before I became familiar with Templemore and its environs! Her mother and some local ladies in Limerick hired a "Charabanc" for the day to take them there to witness the "miracle". It was all a hoax of course, the nice Mr. Walsh had pigs blood in a puffer connected to the face of the statue and he would send a pulse of blood from the eyes of the statue when the praying was going full swing, the hysteria was massive. The moving statue of Ballinspittle of more recent times was a lot more innocent than this fraud! This is the first time I ever saw a photograph of though so nice one NLI, this is brilliant!

Great History Ireland article on the whole incident here, including the mechanics of making the statues bleed: www.historyireland.com/volumes/volume17/issue1/features/?...

National Library of Ireland on The Commons Thank for the link. Read that and what a clever rouse it was! Bleeding eyes on statues can occur during hot weather when the adhesive behind them melts and seeps out.

O Mac DannyM8 Poor old Morning Mary is unwell, it seems she was struck with some sort of digestive disorder over the weekend. She is confident that she will be back in harness in good time to post tomorrows offering. In the mean time I will deputise. Evening Mary.

At thepeerage.com, Arthur Henry Chichester, 3rd Baron Templemore.

Dunbrody on the 25" map.

I believe the Baron was not at home for the 1911 census. Not too many houses with 21 windows to the front in Ballyhack. Likewise in 1901.

Niall McAuley I see from following your peerage.com link that his second son Dermot Richard Claud Chichester, is noted as the 7th Marquess of Donegall, that looks like a big promotion for him?
