Ruin (no.5) The ruins of an old house are to be seen in my father's land. A family named O'Sullivans lived there years ago. When the father died, the mother and son lived there. Years afterwards the mother died and the son want to America. The old house got dilapidated, and when he came home, he went to live in a cottage near Umeraboy. The sign of the foundation of the walls is there yet.
