The article written by a local lad & staff member of Castlebar Library,mentions that the people of Castlebar were worried and frightened about the introduction of gas to the Town & it was a young Louis Brennan that demonstrated,using coal gas and a pipe, how useful & safe it would be.He mentions that he found this information in a Mayo News aricle of 1926,in which a local reminiscences about his youth growing up in Castlebar.
Great stuff.
