A 98 Story

There was a man named Michael Loughlin.  He was the great grandfather of Mr. Thaddeus Loughlin of Drummond.  He was fighting with the rebels in 98.  Another man and he were coming home from the battle of Tubberneering.  
At Islandbridge they met yeomen who asked them to give them their arms.  Mr. Loughlin told the other man not to do so.  They charged the yeos and both were shot dead
