Rows of ancient elm- trees lead to the venerable ruin. The guide a respectable elderly woman, whose shed (for, out- side, it looked nothing more) was nestled down by the road-side, close to the entrance gate was, as usual, very anxious to ascertain the mo- tive of our visit to Kilcrea: had we come to make drawings? a great many ladies and gen- tlemen came to " make drawins. " She would get us " a chair, and a table too, for the matter of that, if we wanted them. " We told her we only desired to... look about us; and entering a little gate, proceeded down the fine avenue. The wall of " mortal remains " we have noticed, we said, ought to be buried; she shook her coifed head very gravely, and answered, " It would be no use they wouldn't remain under ground! " ' Had she ever tried the experiment? ' " No not she indeed she knew better than that. " The poor woman's demeanour was kind and good-natured; keeping a little in the rear, ready with a reply, and sometimes an apt and striking observation when it was least expected.
