- Long ago their lived in the village of Loorha a family called Murphy. They could not aford to pay rent to the landlor Pierce Ronan. One night when the Murphys were going to bed the Landlord came and evicted them. They went into McWalters and the Landlord went after them and said he would put them all out if the McWalters would let the Murphys in again. That night the Murphys slept in a field and next morning they went to England. They are living in Lissyconor now.
