    them old stories.
    There were another kind of men these were not beggarmen. They were called Holymen. There was a holyman living between this District and Dunmore. His name was Michael O'Maoile. He got lodging from the farmer. The woman of the house made a bed for him in the corner. Sometimes he went around on a donkey back.
    There was a man living between Kilkerrin and Ballygar. He had a bag made of leather. He sold clocks and watches. He repaired clocks and watches. He did not beg his food or his clothes.
