The Trenwith Legacy

About The Song By Skully

THE TRENWITH LEGACY

My Grandmother had a hobby, Genealogy.

Night after night she would sit beside her fireplace, light a cigarette, and pour over the thousands of letters,
documents, graphs and photographs she had accumulated throughout her life. In the small hours of the morning
her clock would chime, and she would pack everything back into its appropriate brown envelope, and carefully
return it to her wooden writing box.

She used to tell me amazing stories about the family history, about
her memories, about the mysteries the old wooden box contained, but I was young and could not keep up with
the wealth of information she had in her memory.

When she died, the family trusted me with this wooden box. Knowing that I would treasure it. There was an awful
lot of information, hundreds of beautiful hand written letters, each one revealing its own little secret.
There were letters from all over the world, letters dating back to the seventeen hundreds, letters about love,
about romance, poverty, wealth, death, and murder, secrets, all held together by one thread,

THE TRENWITH LEGACY.

Many of the treasures from my Grandmother's house seem to loose their magic when they left the old house,
but this old box was an exception. Night after night I would lift the lid of the box, and the room would fill with the smell of old documents and cigarettes. "A Scent of a Moment"

The Trenwith Legacy was a colossal fortune left by William Trenwith to his next of Kin, tantalizingly close, never claimed and yet unobtainable. For hundreds of years people had been trying to find proof of links between their branch of the family and the Trenwiths. My Grandmother would smile.
If only William Trenwith knew what a treasure he REALLY left, it is thanks to him that we have a vast wealth of family history that would be long forgotten if it wasn't for his legacy.

Who was Mrs. Noble?

Skully's Song "Mrs. Noble" and the meaning of the song!

When Skully writes his music, it usually comes from an experience or happening in his life, or something that has left an impression on him, great enough to inspire him to write. He calls that SCENT OF A MOMENT, and therefore his new album is aptly named. One of the tracks from the recently released album is called "MRS. NOBLE". What is this all about?? Here it is in Skully's own words.

MRS NOBLE

Biddy Noble has no grave, there is no where to leave flowers, no where to remember her.

BRIDGET NOBLE.

Bridget (Biddy) was born in a tiny stone cottage near Ardgroom in the West of Ireland in 1876. Daughter of John and Mary Neill.
They were very poor, but managed to scrape an existence out of West Cork's stunning but very unforgiving landscape.

Bridget was harassed, humiliated, Kidnapped, tortured and eventually murdered by "Diehards"

Firstly she had her hair cut off in public, this was to act as a warning for what was to come.

What had Bridget Noble done? What could bring such horror down upon her?? Read the rest of the story on Skully's website,
