Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Kingdom of Kerry and Other Stories Kerwan, who had been to the fair in Killarney, and was trudging homewards to her mud cottage on the shoulder of Manger ton; an able-bodied, hard-working widow, who, out of respect to the fair day, were a battered black crepe bonnet over her scanty sandy locks. She was remarkable for white brows and lashes, prominent front teeth, and an exceedingly long, sharp tongue. Most people in Kerry have a nickname, and Mrs. Kerwan was known far and wide as Katty the News, and richly deserved her title.
