    lord of Killarue and Drumgoon thirty one years ago. He would do nothing on you if you payed your rent which was lifted in a house in Bridge St., Cootehill. It was fifteen shillings an acre then. A day in march and one in December was appointed for lifting it and when it was payed you would get a one shilling ticket back. The bailifs went around and told the people when to pay the rent. If they did not pay they would be evicted.
