  2. My grandfather James Carroll who lived in Spa Boyle told me the folowing story
    When Daniel O Connell was coming from Sligo to Boyle he was met at the top of the Curlieus by the people of Boyle. A man named Multh Ganley made them his coach. He took the horse of the horses and pulled the coach to Boyle down on the old Coach Road down Spa up Easkey and down Green St. and they held their meeting on the Crescent. That was the time of the Repeal of Union before the Emancipation.
