Enniskillen

a borough in Ireland, 87 miles W. S. W. of Belfast; famous for the victory, in 1689, of the troops of William III., under Lord Hamilton, over a superior force of James II., under Lord Galmoy. The banners taken in the battle of the Boyne hang in the town hall. The noted regiment of Enniskilleners, or 6th Dragoons, was first instituted from the defenders of the town.
