- There once lived a man in Ballylea by the name of Cunningham. One day he was bringing a load of potatoes from the garden to the house, and the horse failed to pull the load. He untied the horse and pulled the load himself to the house.
Another man by the name of Martin Diviney who lived in Kilbeacanty was coming along the road, with a load, the wheel of the car fell out, he put back back the wheel himself and he was able to lift the load of 35 cwts, unaided.
