⸺ THE MERCHANT OF KILLOGUE: a Munster Tale. Three Vols. (_Heinemann_). 1894. The Author’s first attempt at serious fiction, and one of his finest works. ⸺ BALLYBEG JUNCTION. Pp. 276. (_Downey_). Very well illustr. by John F. O’Hea. (N.Y.: _Pratt_). 1.75. 1895. A comedy of southern Irish life, full of fun, without farcical exaggeration, and true to reality. ⸺ PINCHES OF SALT. Pp. 246. (_Downey_). 3_s._ 6_d._ 1895. Nine Irish tales, mostly humorous, not told in dialect; full of keen observation of Irish life.—(Review). “The Eviction at Ballyhack,” and “The Viceroy’s Visit” are among the best. ⸺ GLIMPSES OF ENGLISH HISTORY. (_Downey_). 3_s._ 6_d._ Illustr. by J. F. Sullivan. 1901. Versions of episodes in English History told by “Dan Banim” in his usual dialect. ⸺ THE LITTLE GREEN MAN. Pp. 152. (_Downey_). Illustr. very tastefully by Brinsley Lefanu. The pranks of the Leprechaun and his dealings with his human friend Denis. A delightful fairy-tale, told with a purpose, which does not take anything from its interest. ⸺ CLASHMORE. Pp. 406. (WATERFORD: _Downey_). 1_s._ [1903]. New edition. 1909. A tale of a mystery centering in the strange disappearance of Lord Clashmore and his agent. The story is healthy in tone, and never flags. There is a pleasant love interest. The dénouement is of an original and unexpected kind. The scene is the neighbourhood of Tramore and Dunmore, Co. Waterford. There is little or no study of national problems or national life, but some shrewd remarks about things Irish are scattered here and there in the book. The characters are not elaborately studied, but are well drawn. ⸺ DUNLEARY: Humours of a Munster Town. Pp. 323. (_Sampson, Low_). 6_s._ 1911. Fourteen capital yarns told with great verve and go just for the sake of the story. They are all humorous, just avoiding uproarious farce. The personages of the stories are the various queer types to be met with in a small southern port:—the convivial spirits in the local semi-genteel club, those of lower degree who foregather in the bar parlour of the “Dragon,” the rival editors of the local papers, the candidates for the harbour mastership, the skippers of the Dunleary steam-packet company, the professional jail-bird—Micky Malowney, and the “general play boy” Jeremiah Maguire. There is no stage Irishism, and no politics. Dunleary is, of course, W—rf—d. =DOYLE, J. J.= ⸺ CATHAIR CONROI, and other Tales. (_Sealy, Bryers_). 6_d._ Written for the Oireachtas, 1902, and now translated by the Author from his own Irish original. They are for the most part Munster folk-lore. =“DOYLE, Lynn”; Leslie A. Montgomery.= Born Downpatrick, Co. Down. Educated at Educational Institution, Dundalk. Has written a successful play, “Love and Land.” Is a bank-manager, residing at Skerries, Co. Dublin.
