Yet
it is strange how the smallest incident takes on greater significance as time
goes by.
You
will all have heard of Tom Williams (friend and colleague of Joe Cahill) who
was executed and buried within the walls of Crumlin Jail.
We
did not know the exact location so all of the area was like hallowed ground to
us.
One
time I was given the task of mowing the grass around the prison hospital. We believed that Toms mortal remains were
buried near the wall behind the hospital.
Carefully
I used the mower to mark out in cemetery fashion a spot in the near
vicinity. In conclusion I marked the
grave by placing some daffodils upon it.
Needless
to say that was the end of my grass-cutting days there.
A
week later I was taken off this duty!
