- Napper was the landlord of this district. He lived at Lochcrew. He was a very cruel landlord. He evicted forty people who lived too near his domain. He sent them to America in a bad sailing vessel and they were all drowned. He raised rent on the poor tenents to be paid on a certain day or he would evict them. He had £30,000 (?) of a rent roll, and he went to England every year to spend it. He would stay in England for two months.
