    Archon in this week's "Southern Star" writes of "The ex-British Army soldiers who escorted the coffin of Lord Mayor Tomas MacSweeny through Cork city "

    Well now, I know of TERENCE MacSwiney and Tomás MAC CURTAIN but not this person.

    If someone is writing an opinion piece, particularly one critical of another's views (the article is an attack on the C of I bishop of Cork) should they not get their facts straight first?
