Irishman the Foreigner Most Welcome
Don Ignacio O’Brien, Ernesto Murphy and Miguel McCarty would all probably agree with a recent report in Kansas City:
“The foreigner most welcome to my country whether he is rich or poor, is the Irishman,” said J. E. Gonzalez, the acting Mexican consul in this city, yesterday.
That’s recent report as in give or take 100 years. Because it’s the Kansas City Journal, the 100-year-old Weblog.
I know certainly I can vouch for the truth that is “the pretty Mexican girl of fortune and blue blood is always willing to mate with an eligible Irishman, although she shies at Americans and Englishmen”, for I spent all my eligible time in Kansas City warding off pretty Mexican girls of fortune and blue blood. Really.
