Dedication

To those of my many Drogheda friends whom the reaper Death, and the vicissitudes of twenty years have left remaining amid the historic scenes I have here faintly sketched — and also to the memory of those others who have long since passed to the unseen world — in token of my undying remembrance of the pleasant days, and weeks, and months spent amongst them in the sunny years of my life’s spring-time, these few “ Reminiscences ” of their ancient and honored borough are cordially and gratefully dedicated.

Nkw York, June, 1866.
