- There is a man in this locality named "Tommy Martin" who is a poor man. He goes from house to house earning his living. One day he went to Boyle to buy a new cap. The shop assistant displayed a number of caps out of which Tommy selected one. Then he asked the price of the cap and the shop assistant said "Two shillings" "Two shillings is it?" said Tommy wondered. It is too dear! I'll only give you half-a-crown and not another penny. He bought the cap and went home well pleased with his bargain.
