    The Landlord
    In my district which is Kilnamanagh, the local landlord is Major O Hara, a native of Annaghmore. His ancestors have been there for nine hundred years. It is said that the O Haras were descended from the son of a king of Munster in the third century.
    Major O Hara is looked upon as a very very good landlord, he never evicted anybody in my district yet.
    He divided a bog, called Annaghmore bog between his tenants, and every man got a share of it. There is no bog given there now, because they did not go when it was divided.
