  1. An Old Noted Poacher

    Share Share Post
    One day Edmond Butler was poaching in the Linawns when a Peeler saw him, the peeler asked him how he was fishing. Edmond was showing him how to hand fish when another peeler came and saw the two fishing as hard as they could. The peeler said I will get the two of your into trouble but the other Peeler said "dont tell anybody and we will divide all we can get." They all agreed and they (and) stayed fishing until they went to Grange Mockler. Then they went into a public house and stayed there until two o'clock in the morning. They had thirty trout each when they were divided.
