  1. (continued from previous page)
    Tipperary and he happened to pass by a forge just as the smith was taking a horse- sheo out of the tire. He walked casually in and while the smith was busy at the fire Seon with one hand lifted the sixteen ston anvil off the block, and hid it behind his back. The smith turned round to see the anvil gone and exclaimed "Nobody could do this but Seon Burns" little knowing he was talking to Sean himself.
