    number of people is seventy. The most common name is Smith. Some of the houses are thatched and some slated. There were more people living in it long ago than now, but some of them emigrated owing to bad times. There are no lakes or woods in it. It is not mentioned in any song or saying. There are some old people living in it over seventy. Their names are Philip Harkin, Joe Smith, Tom Galbrath, Hugh Crumblish, and Kate Mac Laughlin. There are a few houses in ruins there now.
