  1. (no title) (continued)

    Mrs. Kearns of Tinakilly went to school eighty years ago.

    (continued from previous page)
    There was boy about ten of age in a cowhouse one morning about five oclock with his mother. She was milking the cows and went to the dairy for something. A little small fellow came into the cow house about a foot-and-a half in height and wanted to shake hands with the boy but he wouldn't and the little fellow went away again. The boy ran away to his mother and told him what he had seen and the mother told him he had right to shake hands with him anyway.
