66 COUNTY LOUTH ARCHAEOLOGICAL JOURNAL

JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF ANTIQUARIES OF IRELAND." Vol. LXXIV, Part IV (December, 1944) and LXXV, Part I (March, 1945).

Aiiy article by Mr. H. G. Leask?especially if it is on castles?is bound to be as near perfection as one can expect in archaeology. In the December issue he gives a more detailed history and

description of "

Bally moon Castle "

(Co. Carlow) than any that have hitherto been published . "

Clondalkin and its Neighbourhood "

have been described in a very long and comprehensive article by L. Ua Broin, who has gone to infinite pains to discover every possible detail and to

give the results in a most interesting article. This issue concludes with an article by Rev. M.

Moloney on "

Kilcooly Abbey "

(Co. Tipperary) whose site and founder he claims to have solved. He holds that Kilcooley replaced an Irish monastery established many centuries before.

The March issue contains a long article by Helen M. Roe on "

An Interpretation of Certain

Symbolic Sculptures of Early Christian Ireland "

; another by Ada K. Longfield on "

Linen and Cotton Printing at Stratford-on-Slaney, Co. Wicklow

" ;

" Notes on the Walsh Family in Ireland,

France and Austria," by R. W. Walsh ; "

Foundation Sacrifices "

by Sean O Suilleabhain ; and concludes with

" Some Unrecorded Wexford Antiquities," by Rev. J. Ranson. Both numbers

are of the usual high standard of the Royal Society and should prove most interesting, not only to archaeologists, but also to all persons whose districts are covered.

J. M.
