   Long ago the people stole potatoes and oats to sell and get money for them. One time a man of this district had planned with another man to steal two bags of oats. He had the oats left outside a wall. He put a duck and granny and had them playing grand when he snaked off. The other man had the oats at the gate and was waiting for him. They wanted the money to go to a dance.

   Once ten or fifteen men walked from here to Killimor to a races. They had only three halfpennys going with them They came home across the mountain because it was getting late in the evening.
