    A Moat
    A moat is situated in the Parish of Ballingaddy, which is approximately two miles south of Kilmallock.
    This moat is owned by Mr. Dolan. This moat is very bare because the owener cut the bushes off it.
    It is said, when he cut the bushes his hair fell off. I do not know whether this be the true reason, but the fact remains that he has no hair.
