Hey Dobie, Our historians and scholars have speculated on this very point down through the years. Usually over a few pints of Guinness and a few drops of Whiskey (without water obviously). Apparently there are no accurate records of these discussions other than some illegible scraws on the back of a beer mat . However the informed consensus is that some Leprechauns were indeed dispatched to the Sandwich Islands. I will digress here for a moment to add the Leprechaun community of the time preferred to be referred to as the "little people". Something of a stigma had developed and became associated with the term Leprechaun. This being due to the miserable fruitless activity of the general public searching for crocks of gold willy nilly under every rainbow. In any event getting back to the group despatched to the Sandwich Islands. Several months after setting off it is now believed the same group came ashore in ScotlandLuther's nephew Dobie wrote: ↑Fri Jul 08, 2022 11:37 pmThanks Terry.terryfromkerry wrote: ↑Fri Jul 08, 2022 9:16 am Hey Dobie. The episode was called "The Curse Of The King Kamehameha Club" from Season 1.
Any truth to the rumor Saint Paddy sent some leprechauns from County Kerry to Hawaii to drive out the snakes, only they decided to stay
and became the Menehunes? I always thought Chin Ho Kelly had a bit of a brogue, even Wo Fat sounded vaguely like an Ulsterman.
By the way guys, I just heard Larry Storch passed on. His turns on "Car 54 Where Are You" were brilliant, and he carried "F Troop",
having most of the lines in any given episode.
under the mistaken notion that they had reached their intended destination. Suffice to say that they were surprised and delighted to learn that the natives were of a Gaelic ilk and the language quite similar.
Considering the mission successfully completed our group of envoys settled and little more is known of this group. There's nothing of historic value to indicate any further voyages by our intrepid Saint or the little people to reach what is now known as Hawaii.
