In a recent tribute, Dr M.J. Nolan was bestowed with a splendid gold watch and an address from the members of the Board of Downpatrick Lunatic Asylum, while his wife, Mrs. Nolan, received a beautiful autographed silver salver. Dr Nolan, previously serving as an assistant doctor in the Richmond Asylum in Dublin, has become a cherished figure in Downpatrick. The generous gifts they received are a testament to his popularity in the community.

Dr Nolan’s influence extends beyond the medical field; he is also a brother of the affable Mr W.M. Nolan, who serves as the Town Clerk of Limerick. The recognition and accolades given to Dr Nolan reflect his dedication and positive impact on the community he serves.
