| ST. PETER'S CHAPEL AND COLLEGE, WEXFORD.- The brave old city of Wexford is noted for points of historical and romantic interest, and is rich in relics of the past, carrying the mind back to the days of the first Norman occupation, the horrors of the Cromwellian visitation and the sanguinary deeds, committed both by the oppresor and the oppressed, in the red days of the rebellion of 1798. Every street in the town, and the bridge that spans the Slaney, serve to remind the beholder of the ferocity of the "rebel" Captian Dixon and the cruelty of General Lake-a ruthless soldier, as "thorough" in his methods and as merciless in the execution of his orders as the great English regicide himself. |
