On the 12 May 1921, a troop of 'Black and Tans' were travelling out from Listowel towards Athea when they arrested three young men in Gortaglanna. Prior to this the barracks in Listowel had been burnt-out and the troops, heavy with drink and bent on seeking revenge decided to execute the young men. One of the men, Dalton, attempted to free himself from captivity but was shot in the attempt. Both of the other two men were executed on the spot.
Well, wasn't there meself but must have been. What happened back then is very regretful but in the end you can't blame all the Brits for what the Black and Tans did. A friend of mine told me a story of a Brit who ordered a black and tan (the drink) and was thrown out of the town. That was not so long ago but Kerrymen remember the Anglo-Irish war very well.

@firbolg1963 I wouldn't have posted it if I didn't like it. Yes I took the info from Wikipedia but more or less wrote a lot of that article as well.
@catholicrik trust me they always will remember.
Lots of comments by Jo Sparkes I see. Guess you like the song?
