  1. Local Heroes
    Pat Sherlock, Tonyclea, Tydavnet.
    He had a child who was sick. He had friends living beside Monaghan who told him to send them word if the child would die. The child did die. He went up on to the hill behind the house and shouted to his friends beside Monaghan which was six miles away and the friends heard him and came down to the house.
