What is recorded here

A limestone plaque (dims 1m x 0.34-0.38m) from a ringfort in Doobally, probably (LE001-035----), has been installed on the wall of the porch of Tullaghan Roman Catholic church. It is broken on the right-hand side and has an incised inscription in Latin commemorating Rev. Eugene Magowan who founded a chapel in 177?. The bullaun stone (LE001-063001-) from the same location is also in the porch. The inscription reads: VOS OMNES QVI TRANSI (TIS OR) / ATE PRO REVERENDO PA (TR) / E EVGENIO MAGOWAN HVIVS (CAP) / PILLAE DONDITORE ANN (od) / …OMNI 177(?) (Ó Gallachair 1958, 28 9) The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of revised upload: 11 December 2015
