I remember sitting in a country pub in Kildare in 1974, speaking to a well educated Irish Republican, i was amazed by his knowledge, and i just think of "Dan Keating", same old cap, and a very independent gentleman, and thats how he died, with grace and dignity. RIP to you who never wanted a free handout, and never recognised the 26 counties either, you always said, 32 counties or nothing
