User:Professor Calachy S Danley

Professor Calachy S Danley (1924 - 1996) is a widely published and widely respected scholar and author from the West Coast of Ireland. Born in 1924, Danley was the twelth son of a twelth son, a highly fortutious circumstance in post famine Ireland. Died aged 72 in 1996, Danley published 12 major literary works covering a wide sphere ranging from the arts to theoretical physics and popular psychology. One of his most notable works and the main cause of his notoriety is based around his late fathers estate which included the little known but now highly prized ventilagium caeruleus tonus or sea bed window, which was saved from an little known abbey reported to have been ransacked by Cromwell and his troops in the spring of 1650.

Early Life:
Born in Butevant Co. Cork to Bank Manager and Father Tadgh Stuart Danley and Mother Carlie Kuggan, the family moved to Ballinasloe in 1930 as a result of the Bank Of Ireland branch expansion programme of the same year. Calachy was reportedly a very withdrawn child with little or no social skills. Early school reports portray a child that had great difficulty learning coupled with a quick temper. The family did not settle in Ballinasloe very long due to his Mothers continuing illness and his fathers work commitments. His father was relocated to Liscanner within 12 months. The move proved too much for his mother and according to official department of health documents from Ballinasloe's St Bridgids home for the mentally ill she lived out her remaining years in relative comfort being taken care of by the local loretto order. Calachy was reportedly forbidden to have any further contact with his mother and his rebellious streak proved too much for Danley Snr to handle. He was promptly dispatched to the Franciscan Order in Galway where he immeresed himself in the wealth of their library.

Later Life and Works:
Little is known of the later life of Danley until his electorial registration in the Donegal by-election of 1980, won by Clement Coughlan. Following an unsuccessful attemot to gain his parties nomination for the 1983 by-election for Donegal South he turned his energies to his litery prowess and garnered much success from his highly successful and secertive series of no nonsense common sense handbooks.

He died aged 72 alone and destitute. Few could he have known the effect that his wirtings have had on so many and so few.
