Lissadell is a place name from County Sligo, the subject of some of the writings of the poet Yeats. The tune was the composition of the great fiddler John McGrath (1900-1965) of Co. Mayo and New York, according to his nephew Vincent McGrath, and was originally titled "Musical Bridge (The)," after a structure in Belmullet. However, other's dispute the claim for McGrath. Breathnach (1963) notes that Boston button accordion player Jerry O'Brien has a setting of this tune in his '''Irish Folk Dance Music''' (168). The tune was popularized by south Sligo fiddler Paddy Killoran [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paddy_Killoran] (1894-1974), an immigrant to New York City.

Fenced In, by Bonnie Bruno

On November 24, 1874, Joseph F. Glidden of DeKalb, Illinois, was granted a patent for fencing material consisting of barbs wrapped around a single strand of wire and held in place by twisting that strand around another. His original double-strand design, the Winner, lived up to its name; it is the most commercially successful of the hundreds of eventual barbed wire designs. Glidden was also the winner in a welter of litigation that reached all the way to the Supreme Court after some dozen other inventors claimed legal priority. Barbed wire was not immediately successful in Texas and elsewhere, especially with smaller cattle ranchers who depended on an 'open range' to sustain their operations. Their opposition led to the barbed wire conflicts of the 1880's, but eventually the ranges were fenced off. Although open range became a thing of the past, barbed wire helped cattlemen to breed herds in protected environments, thus negating the reliance on long-horned cattle that were more suitable to the open range.
