   We live in Kilmacnevin about half a mile from Irishtown N.S. My father got his place from his relatives, the Murtaghs who are said to be the oldest family in the district. The Murtagh women were very industrious and we have chests full of linen sheets, towels and table cloths which they made from their own flax. The spinning wheel was on one of the lofts till lately when it fell asunder. We have also patch-work quilts which they made and also rag rugs of many beautiful colours. We have linen place mats which they made. Also linen cushion covers and samplers in wool. My Mother is very careful of all those old things and very seldom used them. She takes them out very often to make sure there are not insects in them.
