THE O'CONORS OF CASTLE CONOR, COUNTY MAYO.
FROM "TALES FROM ALL COUNTRIES"
by Anthony Trollope
I shall never forget my first introduction to country life in
Ireland, my first day's hunting there, or the manner in which I
passed the evening afterwards. Nor shall I ever cease to be grateful
for the hospitality which I received from the O'Conors of Castle
Conor. My acquaintance with the family was first made in the
following manner. But before I begin my story, let me inform my
reader that my name is Archibald Green.
I had been for a fortnight in Dublin, and was about to proceed into
county Mayo on business which would occupy me there for some weeks.
My head-quarters would, I found, be at the town of Ballyglass; and I
soon learned that Ballyglass was not a place in which I should find
hotel accommodation of a luxurious kind, or much congenial society
indigenous to the place itself.
