  1. (continued from previous page)
    The name of the man that repairs boots in Bernard Farrell. This has not been a tradition in the family as no one belonging to him were shoemakers. Clogs were never worn or made locally or they are not worn now. Leather was made in the district in former times. There is a place not too far from the school called "Polla Learair" and it is believed there was leather made there once. There were never boots of sheep-skin worn or made locally.
