A plaque has been erected on the Leinster Leader premises, South Main
Street, Naas, recalling John Wyse Power, Editor 1883\/84 who was one of the
seven founders of the Gaelic Athletic Association who attended the inaugural
meeting in Thurles on 1st November 1884. A native of Waterford, Wyse
Power had a lifelong involvement in nationalist politics and journalism. He
took up the editorship of the Leader in summer 1883 and a year later
answered the invitation from Michael Cusack to participate in the foundation
of the GAA. More information from Stan Hickey or Liam Kenny at
