| CARRICKFERGUS CASTLE, CO. ATRIM.- How proudly this famed old castle - grim reminder of that terrible Anglo-Norman warrior, Sir John De Courcy, who founded it in the days of Henry II - keeps watch and ward above the heaving billows of Belfast Lough! Here, according to some authorities, landed Edward Bruce, the elected king of the Irish, with a portion of his royal borther's Scottish troops, in 1315. |
