- In year 1846 there came a blight n the potatoes. When the people were digging the potatoes they could find no potatoes except very small ones. They who finished digging put the small potatoes in boxes of hay to keep them for the following year.
Some of the people did not dig the potatoes until they were setting them again. Some of them had as much as would do an Irish acre only that they had to put three or four in every hole and by this way they had as much as done a road.
In 1847 the famine was worst because the people were dying of the black fever. Wherever they died they were buried there because the people were too weak to carry the corps to the graveyard It was on the bank of a river, or on the ditches the people held the wake.
The people got free meal which they called "Indian Buck" they used to get the meal in half cwts.
