PADRE PIO DEVOTIONS CONCLUDE in LIXNAW:
We celebrated our tenth and final session for this period on Tuesday night. The witness was given by Elma Walsh, who stated that her boy, the late Donal “lived what life he had and made it better”. It was an inspirational moment for the 530 people present. Tuesday concluded the ninth annual novena which has grown from strength to strength since the first meeting in Sept. 2007. The prayer meeting is patronised by people from all parts of Kerry and beyond. It certainly is the biggest gig in Lixnaw and has afforded us the opportunity to showcase our beautifully refurbished church.
A sincere thanks to the Padre Pio prayer group for the quality of their leadership, participation and enthusiasm to provide a platform for people to honour the Saint of our time. Prayer. – “God of tenderness and compassion, the fruits of your passion touch our lives through the wounded hands of St. Pio. Through his life and ministry You reach into the troubled areas of our hearts. Into the pain, the worry and sickness of our inner spirit. God of hope give us strength and courage to keep going with the love and encouragement of St. Pio. Help us to extend his love to those who are struggling with human sickness. We make this prayer with faith and trust. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

HISTORY: Kerry Sentinel 1878-1916, Saturday, July 28, 1900; Page: 3
CLAHANE V. KNOCKANURE. TO THE EDITOR OF The Kerry Sentinel.
Ashill, July 25th, 1900.
Sir—Permit me through your valuable journal to say a few words re the above football match which was played at the Sports Field on Sunday last, and resulted in a win for Knockanure. As a member of the defeated team I am of opinion that the County Board ought, at its next meeting, award the match to Clahane as Knockanure had on its side men from Abbeyfeale and also two- McCarthy and Maloney- who played with Castleisland against Firies in the previous match. Teams breaking the rules of the GAA. By illegally constituting their club ought be severely dealt with, by the County Board by disqualifying Knockanure for this years championship., would Win the approbation of all right-minded Gaels. On behalf of the Clahane team, I also strongly protest against the action, of the referee, Mr. J. Moynihan, in putting out one of our members for a slight retort to him, which was only given in the excitement of the moment; nor were we allowed a man in his place. Of course the County Board will not award the match to Knockanure. If it does it will be setting up a precedent which cannot fail to be highly detrimental to the best interests of the Gaelic Athletic Association.
PO’D.
KWR 23 Jan 1915. THE KILMORNA EVICTION.
Mr. Sheehy proposed the following resolution, viz.: “That Madame de Janesz having evicted from their home Hannah and Margaret Keane, Kilmorna, without giving the Relieving Officer or the Union the necessary notice required by law, it is resolved that this Board proceed for the penalty prescribed by the Poor Law Acts. Mr. Twomey seconded the resolution, Mr. Sheehy said it was a very highhanded proceeding for Madame. de Janesz to take the law into her own hands, and evict people without legal authority, and at that time of the year, a few weeks before Christmas. Mr. M. 0’Connor asked Patk. Flavin, who had married one of the Misses Keane, and had also been evicted with them, if he was sure that there was no notice of eviction given. The Clerk [said he (Clerk) got no notice.
