_Hallahan._ _At́_, a ford; _leat́an_, wide. In Irish, pure and simple,
the vowels are never aspirated, but in certain parts of Ireland, as
before stated, the English habit prevails, as is attested to by the word
under notice.
_Heany._ Anglo-Saxon _hean_, humble; _neać_, an individual. An humble
person.
_Hinch._ _Leat́-inse_, from _leat́_, pronounced _leh_, half, and _inse_,
pronounced _insh_, island, the final consonant of the first half of the
word being carried over to the remaining portion: hence, Le Hinch, or the
half-island.
_Hugh._ _Aod́_, pronounced _eey_, is its Irish equivalent: in the Dutch,
its parental language, it signifies mind, spirit.
