Hopefully Spring will be

here soon and the rain

will finally stop. The

parade season finally

ended. It was great to

see so many friends and

brother Hibernians out on the streets march-

ing in the various parades.

Speaking of parades the division is marching

in the Massapequa Memorial Day Parade.

The parade starts by Village Hall on Front

Street in the Park and will end by the triangle

on Broadway. We will be presenting a

wreath and the ceremony to commemorate

those that have make the ultimate sacrifice

for our freedom. It would be nice to have a

nice size contingent marching for the Hiber-

nians.

As we roll into June, we must begin to get

ready for Irish Night at Brady Park. This year

the event will take place on June 29th. As

always there are a lot of things that need to

take place behind the scenes to ensure that

the night is a success and that folks have a

good time. We are always looking for volun-

teers to help us set up in the afternoon and

to work the event itself. Once again the

Men’s division will be working a refreshment

table where we will need bartenders and hot

dog cookers. Please let me know if you are

willing to work.

In addition to Memorial Day and Irish Night,

please check Ken’s emails for information

regarding ’No Talent Night’ and a pub night

to be held at Hibernian Hall.

Please keep our Chaplin Frank Flood in your

prayers, he really needs them at this time.

Yours in our motto,

Ed McGlade

The March for Life was January 18, 2019 in Washington, D.C. The trip was a huge success. Thanks to all who attended and those who supported the Hibernian Bus. See you next year.

The bus stopped at the Guinness Brewery on the way back. Which was a great time.

Good Friday is the next vigil. Please pray for the unborn.

Thomas Blood

Known as one of the most audacious thieves in British history Colonel Thomas Blood attempted to steal the Crown Jewels from the Tower of London using a dis-guise and plan that turned into madness and ended in ar-rest. And to top it all he was pardoned by the King! Blood was born in County Clare, sometime around 1618, according to Clare Library. He was the son of a pros-perous English blacksmith with lands in Meath and County Wicklow. Blood was raised in Meath. His grandfather Ed-mund Blood of Kilnaboy and Applevale was a Member of Parliament. In 1642 the English Civil War broke out and Blood traveled to England to fight alongside King Charles I. How-ever when it became clear to him that Oliver Cromwell was going to win, he swapped sides and joined the Round-heads. After Charles I's defeat, in 1653, Blood was made the Justice of the Peace and granted a large estate. How-ever, in 1660 when Charles returned to the throne Blood fled back to Ireland with his wife and son. In Ireland Blood was joined with defeated and dis-gruntled Cromwellians who attempted to take seize Dublin Castle and take its governor, Lord Ormonde prisoner. This plot failed and Blood was forced to fell to Holland, with a price on his head for his crimes. He was now one of the most wanted men in England. As the Clare Library’s research puts it: “Thomas was a mysterious character. He was linked to various dissi-dent groups who were hostile to the Government, though he was also involved in Government Counsels. It is thought that he worked as a Double-Agent, playing both sides against each other.” Despite the bounty on his head Blood returned to England taking on the name Ayloffe. He even practiced medicine at a doctor in Romford, in east London. In 1670, after yet another failed attempt at kidnap-ping Lord Ormonde, Blood turned his focus towards a scheme to steal the Crown Jewels. The Jewels were protected, at the Tower of Lon-don, behind a metal grille. The Keeper of the Jewels, Tal-bot Edwards, lived on the same floor, the basement, with his family.

Blood donned the disguise of a “parson” and went to see the Jewels. He became friendly with their Keeper, Edwards, and returned at a later date with a woman who was pretending to

be this “parson’s” wife. Just as the visitors were leaving the fake wife had a violent stomach ache and was taken to the Edwards quarters to rest. Four days later Blood returned, still disguised as the parson, with four pairs of white gloves for Mrs. Talbot, to show their gratitude. The families became friends and there were even discussions of Edwards pretty daughter meeting up with the parson’s wealthy nephew. On May 9, 1671, the parson, along with his “nephew” and two other men made visited Edwards. While the young nephew chatted with Edward’s daughter the others in the party expressed an interest in viewing the Crown Jewels. Edwards led the way and unlocked the metal door. At that very moment, Blood knocked him out cold, from behind. The grille was removed from in front of the jewels and the crown, orb, and scepter were taken out. The crown was flattened with a mallet and put into a bag. The orb was stuffed down Blood’s trousers. The scepter, however, was too long to put in a bag so Blood’s brother-in-law, named Hunt, tried to saw it in half. Blood and his merry men dropped the scepter and tried to run. Blood was arrested having tried to flee the Iron-Gate, after try-ing to shoot one of the guards. Once in custody Blood refused to answer questions. Instead, he repeated, “I’ll answer to none but the King himself.” Quite amazingly Blood was right. Charles I was known to have a penchant for scoundrels and Blood was confident that his Irish charm might actually and literally save his neck yet again. At the Palace, Blood was questioned by King Charles, Prince Rupert, The Duke of York, and other members of the roy-al family. Charles was indeed amused at Blood’s audacity. His amusement was noted especially when Blood told him that the Crown Jewels were not worth the £100,000 as they were valued at, but only £6,000. When the King asked, “What if I should give you your life?” Blood replied, “I would endeavor to deserve it, Sire!” Not only was Blood pardoned but, much to the disgust of Lord Ormonde, he was also gifted land in Ireland work £500 a year. Blood, a turncoat, con man, and thief, became a familiar figure around London and made frequent appearances at the Royal Court. Once again how Blood got away with his crimes is questioned. The Clare Library askes again if Blood was a secret agent. They said: “The mystery remains as to what Colonel Blood had done to gain the King's pardon. At some time in his life Blood must have served the King well as a Secret Agent. This was his reward.” In 1679, Blood’s phenomenal luck ran out. The Clare man quarreled with his former patron, the Duke of Buck-ingham, who had demanded £10,000 in compensation for some insulting remarks Blood had made about his character.

Blood became ill in 1680 the Duke never got paid. Blood died on August 24, 1680, of that year at the age of 62.

May you have the hindsight to know where you’ve been, the foresight to know where you are going, and the in-sight to know when you have gone too far. • You’ve got to do your own growing, no matter how tall your father was. • It is often that a person’s mouth broke his nose. • May the roof above you never fall in and those gath-ered beneath it never fall out. • Lose an hour in the morn-ing, and you’ll be looking for it all day.

• (When a friend can’t change a stubborn person’s mind) You might as well be whistling jigs to a milestone. • Honey is sweet, but don’t lick it off a briar. • If you buy what you don’t need, you might have to sell what you do. • Forgetting a debt doesn’t mean it’s paid. • It is better to spend money like there’s no tomorrow than to spend tonight like there’s no money. • (To be said of someone who is unhelpful) She’s fit to mind mice at a crossroads.

• It’s easy to halve the potato where there’s love. • Where the tongue slips, it speaks the truth. • A good laugh and a long sleep are the two best cures. • You’ll never plow a field by turning it over in your mind. • (To be said of someone who outstays their welcome) If that man went to a wed-ding, he’d stay for the chris-tening. • Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you fight with your neighbor. It makes you shoot at your landlord—and it makes you miss him.

• If you want to know what God thinks of money, just look at who He gives it to! • No man ever wore a scarf as warm as his daughter’s arm around his neck. • A family of Irish birth will argue and fight, but let a shout come from without, and see them all unite.

(To be said of an unfortunate friend) She is always in the field when luck is on the road.

• There is no luck except where there is discipline.

• In every land, hardness is in the north of it, softness in the south, industry in the east, and fire and inspiration in the west.

• (To be said of someone who is very organized) If he’s not

fishing, he’s mending his nets.

• Here’s to a long life and a merry one. A quick death and an easy one. A pretty girl and an honest one. A cold pint and another one!
