	William Carleton - LoveToKnow 1911
		WILLIAM CARLETON (1794-1869), Irish novelist, was born at Prillisk, Clogher, Co. Tyrone, on the 4th of March 1794.
		In spite of his very considerable literary production Carleton remained poor, but his necessities were relieved in 1848 by a pension of £ 200 a year granted by Lord John Russell in response to a memorial on Carleton's behalf signed by numbers of distinguished persons in Ireland.
		He wrote from intimate acquaintance with the scenes he described; and he drew with a sure hand a series of pictures of peasant life, unsurpassed for their appreciation of the passionate tenderness of Irish home life, of the buoyant humour and the domestic virtues which would, under better circumstances, bring prosperity and happiness.

	Irish Gangs and Stick-Fighting
		Carleton was actually born "Liam O'Cathalain" on Shrove Tuesday in 1794, at Prillisk, near the town of Clogher in County Tyrone.
		Carleton seems to have been a bit of a thrill-seeker and a risk-taker as well, who never really lost his love of excitement and the chance to relate the experience of excitement in a good story.
		Carleton felt that membership in the Factions was misguided as Faction Fighting itself forced Irish martial artists to misuse and waste their martial arts abilities in senseless and often lethal violence.

	William Carleton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		William Carleton (February 20, 1794 - January 30, 1869) was an Irish novelist.
		Before this Carleton had hoped to obtain an education as a poor scholar at Munster, with a view to entering the church; but in obedience to a warning dream, the story of which is told in the Poor Scholar, he returned home, where he was admired by the neighbouring peasantry for his supposed learning.
		Carleton wrote from intimate acquaintance with the scenes he described, and drew with a sure hand a series of pictures of peasant life, unsurpassed for their appreciation of the passionate tenderness of Irish home life, of the buoyant humour and the domestic virtues which would, under better circumstances, bring prosperity and happiness.

		Carleton in a sense united his country: the list of eminent persons to petition the Government to grant him a pension in 1847 represents all the different ways of being Irish.
		Nothing else could have brought together the President of the Catholic College at Maynooth and Colonel Blacker, the Orange leader, in the presence of Maria Edgeworth, Dan O'Connell's son, Oscar Wilde's father and the Rev.Dr. Henry Cooke, from Belfast.
		It aims to further the already awakened interest in the life, times and writings of William Carleton; present Carleton as a writer of international significance; foster critical examination of Carleton's work; and present the best of today's writing by Irish writers.

		Carleton was an Irish stick-fighter himself, and this is the first time that all of his tales about stick-fighting have been collected in a single volume.
		Carleton himself, was an Irish-speaking stick-fighter, who trained and fought as a stick-fighter for much of his early life.
		Carleton never wrote from a distance, but always from autobiographical material, especially in his earliest short stories like the ones in this volume, and this is further confirmation of the historical accuracy and authenticity of the Irish stick-fighting traditions documented in his works.

		William Carleton, a well-known Irish author, was born in Prillisk, Ireland, March 4, 1794, the fourteenth child of James Carleton, a farmer, and his wife Mary Kelly.
		He was educated in the village school and the school at Donagh, and for six months was a tutor in the family of a wealthy farmer.
		While his sketches and novels give a good picture of Irish peasant life, most of them are rather depressing and lack the rollicking humor of Lever and Lover.

		The Carleton Coat of Arms, believed to come from the authentic family escutcheon of our namesake William Carleton, was adopted by the college in 1898 for use by the Athletic union.
		Although Carleton athletic teams were officially given the name "Knights" by student vote in the fall of 1950, the association of a Knight with Carleton goes back much further.
		(In fact, genealogical research Eric Hillemann, Carleton College Archivist, did on William Carleton, College namesake, in the summer of 1996 suggests that this was all based on a faulty genealogy and that the Carleton Coat of Arms is derived from the escutcheon of the wrong branch of the Carleton family.

	JManly: Irish Gangs and Stick-Fighting: Green
		Though often overlooked by modern literary scholarship, Carleton (christened Liam O’Cathalain and the youngest of fourteen children of a small farmer in County Tyrone) is uniquely equipped to provide insights into Irish stick-fighting and the culture that created it.
		In the case of the Irish stick-fighting tradition, an understanding of village feuding, the roots of religious conflict and the secret societies they breed, and the nature of local festivals and market days (prime occasions for gang fights) are necessary to round out the understanding of the martial art’s infrastructure.
		William Carleton’s prose often is not easy to wade through—especially if your primary interest is practical martial arts technique.

	The Father of British Canada: A Chronicle of Carleton, by William Wood (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
		With the fall of Quebec in 1759 Carleton disappears from the Canadian scene till 1766. But so many pregnant events happened in Canada during these seven years, while so few happened in his own career, that it is much more important for us to follow her history than his biography.
		Carleton’s is the only personality which links together all four decades—the would-be American sixties, the French-Canadian seventies, the Anglo-French-Canadian eighties, and the bi-constitutional nineties—though, as mentioned already, Murray ruled Canada for the first seven years, 1759-66.
		But there was a serious side. Deserters and prisoners, as well as British adherents who had escaped, all began to tell the same tale, though with many variations. Montgomery was evidently bent on storming the walls the first dark night. His own orders showed it.

		Carleton's pen has been industriously engaged in the production of "Farm Ballads" (1873), "Farm Legends" (1875), "Farm Festivals" (1881), "Young Folks' Centennial Rhymes" (1876), his last production (1885) being "City Ballads," most probably the result of his residence in Chicago and Brooklyn.
		The vigilant eye of George William Curtis saw at once the merit of the poem, and "Harper's Weekly" promptly republished "Betsey and I Are Out," with numerous characteristic illustrations.
		Carleton's writings are more varied than many would anticipate from the homely tone of the verses which have made him famous.
