- David Houlihan who was a good mower went to Carrolls of Ballyvolane to cut corn. Before he went to the cornfield Mr. Carroll said, "If you never did a good day's work do it to-day." After a hard day's work he had three acres cut. But when he was telling about it later he spoke as if cutting three acres of corn was not an unusual thing for him to do. "I cut at my ease until I had three acres cut. Then I put the scythe on my shoulder and walked home."
