    There is a big hole near Kilmactranny - a botomless one we called it "The Soom-ur-yeh".

    (continued from previous page)
    Next to Doon Quay is Trinity Island, I always heard that Conyers Clifford was buried on that island in my young days.
    Doon Quay leads into the King's Palace. The King is supposed to be buried on the Corran on the tip-top of Shee-gore-ya. Goor-ya was the King's name.
    There's only a stone here and there now (she means when she left Doon- teacher) in the track of the King's house - we called it a "Coshel" - only sloes, blackberries and briers.
