Dan Donnelly: Curadh Trodach na nGael in am an ghátair


Some months ago I met with Jim Kavanagh who wanted to regenerate a memory he had from when he was younger of seeing Dan Donnelly's Arm in The Hideout, writes Brian Byrne. Through the generosity of Josephine, he was facilitated in seeing it once again, at close quarters.


In today's Irish Times, James's article on the life and times of the famous pugilist can be perused, a story written and told many times and now once again in print, this time in Irish.

For those who don't have Irish, the headline 'Dan Donnelly: Gaelic Champion in times of need' is an interesting direction into the fighter's career and influence in a very short life.
