    The Clogherhead Dreadnoughts and Dowdall's Hill (from Dundalk) used to play in the Bean Park in Dunleer and there were twenty one men on each team.
    The Dowdall's hill won and the score was 3 goals and two points to 2 goals one point.
    Ben Fisher from Clogher won fame on the field, but the Dreadnoughts were put off the field because they were so rough. The Dreadnoughts wore blue and black and the Dowdalls Hill wore green and gold.
