                            local Colonel rallying his ''men''......No doubt many Ulster Scots looking to get at them Paddies and French.....

                            Sadly Irish history is full of so called French Help.....The same French who treated Protestants in a not so respectful manner......The best way to get on a good protestants nerves was to include the French in your plans.....link up with their Catholic hatred for the protestants and you give up all reasonable hope of being treated nicely.....

                            Being stuck in the middle between France and Ireland was not what the Anglicans and the fire and Brimstone Presbyterians would have wished for even on a good day......Certainly outnumbered, and with the Pope threatening revenge daily you would not have acted like a nice Sunday Schoolboy......

                              There was no shortage of land in Britain......just a shortage of Protestants in Ireland to make sure the French did not take it up as a Holiday Island....
