    afterwards three skeletons were found outside in Reandampaun by a cow-herd and were recognised by the officers.
    The McGraths were blamed for getting the officers killed so the English soldiers came and evicted them from the castle and took their land off them. Mr. Osborne of Cappagh got some land there too. He came one day to the small house where the McGraths lived then and he asked the oldest daughter to marry him but she refused him. Then he asked the second one and she also refused but the youngest one of them married him.
