<p>I don't understand your questions Thomas. The aid sent by the Choctaw people seems to be well documented and I simply posted the picture of the sculpture along with the accompanying comments. </p>

<p>Hi Des - I just listened to your song - it's brilliant - soulful and poignant - conveying the great tragedy and sorrow of those dreadful times. Thanks for letting us know about it.</p>

<p>Des, I just read the lyrics and listened to Before The Hunger. It's a great song, well sung and full of passion. In it's own way it's as expressive and carefully crafted as Alex Pentek's feathers. Well done.</p>

<p>I wish, David! I'm not the creator of the feathers - it is by Cork sculptor Alex Pentek. I wrote the song Before the Hunger which I have recently posted on TWiG.</p>

<p>Thank you Mairead. I've read that book, it has lovely illustrations. Des, I'm such a dope - I didn't realise that you are the artist who created this work. Congratulations, it's wonderful</p>

<p>Good luck with your novel, David. And thanks for the wonderful picture of this sculpture commemorating the generosity of the Choctaw nation. "The Long March: The Choctaw Nation's Gift To Irish Famine Relief" is a children's book I have read to my children to teach them about the incredible link between the Choctaw and the Irish.</p>
