On the left bank of the Erne, about two 

 miles below Belleek, there is a spot of forest 

 ground — it is but a spot — not fifty acres of 

 it, though, from the irregularity of its sur- 

 face, it might seem three times the size. 

 From this point it is that the river is seen 

 in its greatest beauty. A ridge of red earth 

 interspersed with rocks, which, like all the 

 strata in this part of the country, crosses the 

 river at right angles, gives the place its 

 name — by the natives it is called the Mois 

 Ruah, or Red Bank, but the name is popu- 

 larly corrupted by the English fishermen
