PETTIGO CHURCH OF IRELAND CEMETERY, CO. FERMANAGH, IRELAND
Inscription on Pettigo War of Independence Memorial.
(located on a statue, Main St., Pettigo)
Pettigo Church of Ireland.
Pettigo Church of Ireland was built in 1838. The
congregation formerly worshipped at church in Carne
Graveyard. There is a plaque in the church to the father of
John Kells Ingram the writer of "Who Fears to Speak of '98"
as well as members of the local gentry, the Bartons. Pettigo
Church of Ireland's most famous minister was the Rev. Philip
Skelton who ministered here in the 1760's. He was a good man
if enviably eccentric. He was a scholar yet sold his books
on two occasions in his life to provide for the needs of the
local starving. When he ministered here in the 1760s he
considered the locals of Pettigo to have as little knowledge
of their religion "as the Indians of America" and began a
series of "examination services" where he would question his
congregation. The congregation of course soon dwindled on
the appointed Sundays whereupon he used to ambush them by
locking the doors before testing their knowledge. He was
given to a melancholy which led him to think he was dying.
So many of these emergencies came and went that one
parishioner was heard to say that he wished he would "make a
day and stick to it."
John Kells Ingram (Who Fears to Speak of '98)
John Kells Ingram.(1823 - 1907) scholar and poet was born on
July 7 th , 1823, in the Church of Ireland rectory,
Aghnahoo, Pettigo, Co. Donegal. His father was curate of
Templecarne Parish. He was educated at Dr Lyons's school,
Newry, and Trinity College Dublin. He became a fellow of the
college 1846, and remained associated with it for fifty-five
years, as professor of oratory 1852-66, professor of Greek
1866-77, librarian 1879-87, senior lecturer 1887, and
finally as vice-provost 1898-99. His intellectual energy
ranged over mathematics, classics, poetry, religious
speculation, and economics, but he is best remembered for
his poem 'The Memory of the Dead' ('Who fears to speak of
ninety-eight?'), written when he was nineteen and published
anonymously in the Nation in April 1843. His authorship was
an open secret in Dublin, but despite this poem Ingram
showed no nationalist sympathies at any time, maintaining
that Ireland was not ready for self-government.
He published many studies in economics, sociology, and
religion, the most important being History of Political
Economy (1888), which was translated into eight languages.
In 1873 he founded and edited Hermathena , a series of
papers on science, philosophy and literature by members of
Trinity College Dublin. He helped to found Dublin
Statistical Society 1847 and was president from 1878-1900.
He was president of the Royal Irish Academy from 1892-96. He
died at his home at 38 Upper Mount Street, on 1 May 1907 and
is buried in Mount Jerome Cemetery, Dublin. His portrait was
painted by Sarah Purser. His writings were:- Considerations
on the State of Ireland, History of Political Economy, A
History of Slavery and Serfdom, Love and Sorrow, Outlines of
the History of Religion, Sonnets and other Poems, Human
Nature and Morals According to Auguste Comte, Practical
Morals, A Treatise on Universal Education, and The Final
Transition, A Sociological Study. But above all the rest of
his writings John Kells Ingram is remembered in Ireland for
his quickly dashed off poem:-
Memory Of The Dead, The
John
Kells Ingram
Who fears to speak of Ninety-Eight? Who blushes at the
name? When cowards mock the patriot's fate. Who hangs his
head for shame? He's all a knave or half a slave. Who
slights his countr thus But a true man, like you man, Will
fill your glass with us We drink the memory of the brave,
The faithful and the few - Some lie far off beyond the wave.
Some sleep in Ireland, too; All, all are gone - but still -
lives on The fame of those who died; All true men, like
you, men. Remember them with pride. Some on the shores of
distant lands Their weary hearts have laid, And by the
stranger's heedless hands Their lonely graves were made.
But, though their clay be far away Beyond the Atlantic
foam, In true men, like you men, Their spirits' still at
home. The dust of some is Irish earth Among their own they
rest; And the same land that gave them birth Has caught
them to her breast; And we will pray that from their clay
Full many a race may start Of true men, like you men, To
act as brave a part. They rose in dark and evil days To
right their native Iand; They kindled here a living blaze.
That nothing shall withstand. Alas that Might can vanquish
Right - They fell and passed away; But true men, like you
men, Are plenty here today. Then here's their memory -
may it be For us a guiding light To cheer our strife for
liberty, And teach us to unite! Through good and ill be
Ireland's still, Though sad as their's your fate; And true
men, be you, men, Like those of Ninety-Eight.
