		Built at same time as the Viceregal Lodge and designed by the same architect, Henry Irvin, attention was diverted to the Viceroy's residence and, hence, substandard material was used in the construction of the Town Hall and it started falling apart barely seven years after it was completed.

		But it occurs to me that the reply to that is that for such a man a salary of £10,000 a year ought to be so ample as to enable him to defray his household expenses just as any other citizen does and must—does, indeed, because he must.
		The impression that conveyed to me, and probably to most other people, was that the present occupant of the Viceregal Lodge was consulted and that he objected or rather considered that it would not be a proper thing to remove.
		He is thinking of the Viceregal days and wants the junketings and the aldermanic feastings restored, and he and the other of the twin brethren, Deputy Good, believe all those expenses will attract hordes of tourists to our shores.

		There are many agreeable associations connected with the Viceregal Lodge garden parties in the summer, and dances in the early autumn.
		There is, however, at all times a pleasant absence of formality in the viceregal "at homes" in the Lodge, especially in the hands of the present popular Viceroy and his amiable Countess, who seem to have got the right key to the complex character of the Irish Celt.
