| GLENVEIGH, COUNTY DONEGAL. -This nobly romantic glen, whose mountains cast their shadows on the clear waters of Lough Veagh, in Donegal, is farmed for the majesty of its scenery, but is best remembered in Irish history as the scene of the most relentless landlord persecution of "tenants at will" in modern times. The splendid castle which rises in the left middle ground, as presented in the picture, was erected by John George Adair, a Queen's County aristocrat, who purchased the Glenveigh property in 1858-59. |
