Record price of €5,200 recorded at All-Star Texel in-lamb ewe sale
Records were broken at the All-Star Texel in-lamb ewe sale on Saturday last at Blessington Mart, which saw a top price of €5,200 paid out for a twin-bearing ewe and an overall sale clearance rate of 90%.
Lot 61, bred by Anthony Donnelly, was bought by Brian Connelly, from Tuam in Co. Galway, for the record-smashing price – of €5,200.
This record-breaking in-lamb ewe is a daughter of Garngour Bladerunner and out of a Knock Ursus ewe. She was sold scanned carrying twins and is due to lamb in February. Donnelly also sold two more full sisters of this ewe for €3,000 and €1,600 respectively.
Young missionary and prodigal son
At age 8 Felix Carey went to India as a companion to his missionary father. He picked up Bengali even faster than his father did.

Those who went had short careers; many died within the first two years on the field. Thus the numbers remained quite small.
But the magnitude of the modern missions movement must not be measured by the number of missionaries. It must be measured by the growth of the church.
In 1800, perhaps 1 percent of Protestant Christians lived in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. By 1900, this number had grown to 10 percent. Today, at least 67 percent of all active Protestant Christians live in countries once considered foreign mission fields. And the church is still growing rapidly, even explosively, in many areas Korea, sub-Saharan Africa, Singapore, and the Peoples�
