-- Look at this here. Joe McGhee says that Jim Joyce was a Protestant
and a nationalist into the bargain.

-- Aye.

-- But can that be our own Jimmy who was a lapsed Catholic?

-- The same.

-- Is it the boy who answered the question would he die for Ireland
by saying it would be fitter if Ireland would die for him?  The one
who longed for Irish independence so that he could declare himself
her first enemy?

-- Yer very man.

-- But then, how could he be a Protestant and a nationalist?

-- Look at the title of the article - he's correcting Irish history.

-- I see ... He says here that that came off the top of his head.

-- Then his head's in its usual location.
