THE CROSS AND THE SHAMROCK and FROM ERIN TO THE ACRE

BACK IN PRINT!

Are you thinking of a unique gift for someone who may be interested in Lowell's Irish past? 

The Cross and the Shamrock: the art and history of Saint Patrick Cemetery


and From Erin to the Acre: a photo history of Lowell's early Irish


have been reissued and are available for a limited time.  All proceeds from the books will go directly to the restoration fund of St. Patrick Cemetery.  Those who have visited the cemetery know the beauty of the shamrock slate stones that make St. Pat's truly unique.  Profits from the books will go to help restore the stones which are in need of restoration.  The gift is twofold.  Not only will you learn of Lowell's pioneer Irish past, but also know that you have helped preserve our common heritage. 
The Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians is managing the sales. 

The books are $10.00 each and your check should be made out to 
LAOH Cemetery Restorations and mailed to:

LAOH Div 1 Lowell

EXTRA! EXTRA!- Those who purchase the book and add a small donation of their choosing will also receive a 5 x 7 parchment certificate acknowledging the contribution for help in preserving our heritage for future generations.  (Please state the name to be inscribed on the certificate.)
