- In Big Phil's time, tea was unknown in rural districts. The priests were the first to get it and each priest brought his servant to the Station House to wet the tea for breakfast. Nobody else knew how to do it. Old Phil was once watching the priest's servant at a station as she was wetting the tea. Noticing Phil's interest in what she was doing she remarked "Phil, I'll bet you don't know what I'm doing". "Well indeed", says Phil, "I wet more tea in an hour than you wet in a year".
He meant a chest of tea that he dumped into a boghole coming from Drogheda. Joe Moran, my informant now 73 remembers seeing Big Phil. That would be roughly 65 years ago. Phil was then a very old man, stooping over a stick. Joe remembers his features, the huge bones in his hands, the square jaws, and the broad face.
