   Almost every field in Ireland has some name to denote some incident connected with that place. There is a large field in the townland of Ross owned by Pat McDonagh which is called "Machara Eireann" a plain of Ireland. It is so called because the grass which grows there is of the richest and sweetest variety.
   There is a river which flows through Ross and it is called "Pol Mor" or the big hole which is in the bottom of the river and in summer time it abounds in fish.
   There is a small tree in a hedge in my father's farm and it is called "fear gan ceann" or man without a head. If you look at it by night it looks like a man without a head and that is how it got its name.
   There is little field on James Flynn's farm and it is called "an gair? dub" or the black garden.
