- There is a man named Thomas Murray. He travells about selling goods such as combs, brushes, knives forks and spoons.
When anyone offers him a shed to sleep in, on a cold wet night he does not take it. He has a tricycle for travelling on and he always travells alone.
There is an other party by the name of Carrols who are commonly seen in this district. They travel in a caravan and at night they put up tents on the side of the road.
