Down Scór Memory Lane- Kickhams Creggan

In 1973, Oliver Kearney won the All Ireland recitation title for Creggan. He was known for reciting the poem below "Michael Dwyer"

At length brave Captain O’Dwyer, you and your trusty men,
Are hunted o’er the mountains and tracked into the glen.
Sleep not, but watch and listen, keep ready blade and ball,
For the soldiers know your hiding place tonight in wild Imaal.....
