Dromoland Castle, Lord Inchiquin’s historic seat at Newmarket-on-Fergus, Co.Clare, was one of the few big houses to escape destruction what they facetiously call “The Trouble” in Ireland. This was lucky, because it is one of the show places in the South. Lord Inchiquin is a Senator of the Irish Free State and was elected in 1921. The Hon. Donough O’Brien is his son and heir, and Mrs. Donough O’Brien was the Hon. Anne Thesiger, and is a daughter to Lord Chelmsford, a former Viceroy of India.
