I.
Of all the cities in Ireland which I have seen, Galway is infinitely the strangest and most foreign. It is as definite in character as Aries, as distinguished in its decayed exotic splendour as the Catalonian Gerona, or as Frejus on the Cote d'Azur. In many ways it resembles some crumbUng city of the Mediterranean ; but the Irish sky which hangs over it, the soft Irish mist that so often wraps it round, and the appearance and manners of its people combine to give it a strongly-marked individ...uality. Whenever I think of Gal- way I see first of all that curious mist out of which the outlines of the city only gradually emerge in my memory.
The run from Dublin to Galway, from sea to sea, across the heart of Ireland, is perhaps the most interesting four hours' railway journey which can be embarked on from Dublin. I well remember the July morning when the train which was to carry me into the unknown steamed out of the Broadstone station. I had seen 69 70 A Stranger in Ireland nothing of Ireland before save only Dublin and parts of County Wicklow, and yet all the way as I sat with my face glued to the window, the curious melancholy landscape seemed perfectly famihar.
