- (continued from previous page)as our Government sees that every poor person has a clean, healthy house to live in and has all the old hobbles condem and done away with.
The middle landlords were even worse than the landlord, as a lot of them were poor and wanted to make their profit out of the poorer class, and if they had a house or a piece of land let to a person they were very hard on him if he could not pay his rent.
In olden times the houses were so scarce that the poor people often had to rear a pig or a calf in the same house as they lived in themselves.I, Maureen O'Donohue, Bushy Park, Borrisokane Co. Tipperary got this from my father John O'Donohue, Bushy Park, Borrisokane, Co. Tipperary.
