    (continued from previous page)
    humane landlord. He never evicted his tenants out of their houses or land. He used to give time to pay the rents and these were not very exorbitant at the time. A certain time was fixed for the paying of the rent in money. There was great peace in the district during his time as landlord.
    There is now no member of the Redington family in Kilcornan Castle. The house is derelict and was purchased a few years ago by the Galway County Council for the purpose of converting it into a sanatorium.
