    One time when the people were digging in Monellan (an estate 1 ml. SW of Killygordon) they dug up four tubs of butter. It was country butter and very fresh.
    One time Patrick Marley was cutting turf and when he was cutting he dug up a butter-dish and a saucer and they were quite fresh. The dish was wood and the saucer was delph.
