    In a field near Riverstown there is a monument of John Stenson. he was working with a man named John Mellican of Rusheen. At that time the people were driving cattle off Ardcumber as they wanted the land to be divided. On October 29th 1908 he and a large crowd of people were driving off the cattle. The police fired shots from the Carrick and shot Stenson dead. The monument is in the very spot he fell.
