  2. Lord Ventry was the landlord of this district long ago.
    He was here in this part 28 years ago.
    He was not a bad Landlord.
    He evicted nobody in this townland for he always gave time to pay the rent.
    In the time of the Saxion the land was divided by the English Government and given to the soldiers who fought for her.
