    (continued from previous page)
    Two men paid the extreme penalty of the law = execution - for her murder. One was a gentleman lover and the other his boatman. The remains of the former lie in Crecora Churchyard, within the precinct of some ruins. This gentleman belonged to a family who held high influence in those far off days. Consequently, his body must have been allowed to his friends for his private internment. Thoumpeen na Webbina lies in the farm of Mr Ned Lane. Where the "Colleen Bawn" used to visit was close to the little stream near Pat Keating's house.
