The Insurrection broke out at three different points : in mid-Leinster, that is to say in the counties of Kildare, Carlow, Meath and to some extent in Dublin ; in the Ulster counts of Antrim and Down ; and in Wexford and Wicklow In Cork there was one encounter between a few hundred peasants and a troop of yeomanry, but the rest of Munster, and the entire province of Connaught, remained quiet.
