    “The beggar woman I know best is Mrs Flynn.”

    Share Share Post
    The beggar woman I know best is Mrs Flynn. She often comes around begging. She asks for sugar, tea, bread, and milk. She has a family. She travels in a horse and car. She sells small articles. She makes her living in buying and selling feathers.
    Another traveller I know is Billy Conway. He has a house in Mallow. He was in the war and he has 25 shillings a week. He wants a few coppers or a piece of bread when he comes around.
