    Landlords,Tenants etc.
    Once upon a time there lived in New Castle a landlord named Donaghmore. He evicted one of his tenants who lived close by. Lord Donaghmore used go fishing along the banks of the Suir. The man he evicted worked nearby and as he was a very strong man Donaghmore was afriad of him. So he sent into Clonmel for the army. They put him in to prison, and after a few days they hanged him from the bridge that is over the Suir near New Castle.
