   On the flagstone above a blacksmith's grave in the cemetery in Fedamore these lines are chiselled:

   
   My sledge and hammer have declined,
   My bellows too, has lost its wind,
   My plenteous fire and forge have fled away
   And in the earth my voice is drowned in clay

   (M. O hÁrtagáin)

   Of Glenogra bridge - over the Camóg near Fedamore - it was said:

   "In Glenogra bridge there are five arches
   That never were shaken by a mountain flood
   And dread nor wind nor water. (Mich O hArtagáin)

   The parish of Two-mile-Borris (Tiob. Ár.) is dedicated to St. James and I always heard when a boy there, that the patron Saint gave it as a concession to the parishioners for all time that no one should ever be killed there by lightning (Tiob. Ár.)

   Rann na Seilmide ó Áis Céitinne:
