  1. The road passing by my house is called the New-Line. It leads from Ardfinnan to Cahir. It was made in the years 1846-47. There is an old road in my district called the Factory Hill and it is still used by nearly everyone in the locality.
    If people have warts they fill a bag with stones, and drop them at some cross-road and after some time the warts will decay. There is a Mass-path in Clogharden.
