    There are many travellers in this locality and there is welcome for them always.

    There are many travellers in this locality, and there is welcome for them always. They sleep along the roadside in camps. The time they come most is before a fair. The most well known of them are: - the O'Briens, the Faulkners, the McCarthys, Quilligans, Shurdans, and the Purcels. What they ask for most are: - tea, sugar, flour, bread and eggs. The men ask for horsehair and sell tin cans and tables.
