Bronze uncle is not just some kind of statues there, but a whole Viscount Fitzbibon. Not Gibbon Fitz, notice, and Fitzbibon, although the arithmetic is something there is lying about the change of places of the terms. Viscount served in the 8th royal Irish hussar regiment (about him :) and disappeared in the battles of the Crimean War. The answer to the question of what exactly and his own, and his entire 8th hussar regiment was forgotten under Sevastopol, it is not reflected on the monument, but it is reflected there that the monument is erected "in memory of the Harot of the Viscount of Fitz Baken of the 8th Royal Irish Hussar Regiment And his valiant comrades for arms, branching and the city of Limerick, who were glorious in the Crimean War. " Viscount disappeared during the famous attack of a light brigade (see) when the cunning Russians brazenly and cynically shot up peacefully grazing under the Balaklava British cavalrymen.
