  1. Account of a landlord from Marie O'Grady, given by Mr. George O'Grady, Ft. Elizabeth, Croom 21.9.'39
    Before the Land Commission took over our places, the landlord was Newenham. He was a Major in the English army and seldom visited his property in Ireland. He was a middling reasonable man, but his agent was a hard man and expected the rents punctually and to the last farthing, without pity for sickness or misfortune.
