Excerpt from A History of the Siege of Londonderry, and Defence of Enniskillen, in 1688 and 1689 Row, Dublin, who claimed a collateral descent from Walker. In his house it remained for fifty years, and after his death it was purchased by John Boyd, Esq., by whose permission it is carried annually, on the 7th of December, to Morrison's hotel, in Dublin, where a nu merous and highly respectable Society of the descend ants of the defenders of Londonderry assemble to honour the glorious memory of their ancestors. Each of the members of this Irish Pitt Club, as it may be called, wears on his breast, for that night, a medal impressed with a likeness of Governor Walker.
