  1. Lord Louth is our local landlord. They have been settled in the district about two hundred years.
    He was a fairly good man.
    There was one man evicted from part of Spring hill land.
    His name was Colman? a man by the name of McMahon got the land after him.
    Any people who were evicted went to America and other foreign contries.
    The land was not divided into small farms.
    The tenants were not punished for little things.
