25 pounds is offered as the bounty for a priest, the same as for a wolf. The priest is conducting a Catholic mass but clergy were banned from Ireland under the 1652 Act Of Settlement, the Penal Laws (Na Péındlíthe).

This is a 2004 image of the North’s longest-lasting mural. It was painted in 1981 (and seen previously in 1982) and survives to the present day without repair. The flags are flying from regular poles, before the custom took hold of painting flags on pikes in order to include the 1798 rebellion. The mural’s longevity, continuing to stand without being repaired, makes it the oldest original mural in the north.
