- About half a century ago there resided in Fort Fergus a Landlord by the name of Mr Ball. About the time of the Famine he did all he could for the tenants and did not ask the rents of them. Mr O'Keffee was one of his agents in gathering them.
Mr Henn was another landlord and he also gathered the rents. He lived down in Paradise. Their descendants are living always in Paradise. They also had baliffs poor people from the towns and villages they got for baliffs.
