- There was a man living in Ballyduff Parish to the north of Tralee about forty-five years ago. His name was John Coner. He died at the age of seventy years. He was noted for knitting jumpers. He was buried in [Relfinly] graveyard near Ardfert.
- About sixteen years ago there lived a man from Listellick named Michael OBrien. He died in Dublin and he was buried in Rath Graveyard outside Tralee. He was a famous mower and he was known from Ballyheigue to Tralee. He used to mow an acre and a half in the day. He used to mow from eight-oclock in the morning until 9 at night.
