“CELEBRATION”
On 31st August 1912 the members of the Ballymacash Branch of the Derriaghy Unionist Club marched to Ballymacash House to get photographed, on the invitation of Miss Johnston.
“The fine appearance and marching of the men were highly commented on.” (Lisburn Herald, 7th September 1912)

“Dear Ballymacash, my native place
In thee I spent my early days,
Though many years have passed since then
It gives me joy to sing your praise...”
