The Croghan Labourers Fund
<p>Celebrated on 15 August, the feast of the Assumption of Mary into Heaven was marked as a Holy Day of Obligation in the Roman Catholic Church and as a festival (under various names) in the Anglican Communion.<br /> On this occasion in 1856, Guy Lloyd Esq. of Croghan House, dismissed 22 Catholic employees for refusing to work on their "holy day of obligation". For months following this incident, the NATION newspaper published outraged letters from around Ireland and England, branding Lloyd a 'bigot' and a 'Souper supporter'.</p>
