    (continued from previous page)
    In our village there was one blacksmith and his name was John Glavey and he was the best blacksmith in the parish.
    Near Kiltimagh there was a blacksmith and he was able to make pikes for the men near Tourmakeady.
    One day a band of English soldiers came to his house and killed him.
