   III The soap which was used in this locality some seventy years ago was not the same as what is used at the present time. At that time people procured a substance from the banks of rivers, resembling lime. This was dug up, put in a cart and taken to a suitable place in the farmyard. Here it was made into balls about the size of a present day pound of soap. It was fit for use immediately and was only used locally, it was also sold in the military barracks at Athlone.

   In the townsland of Cartroncor and the parish of Drumraney there lived a man and he used to weave linen. His name was Thomas Mullen. The people in the townsland used to sow flax and when it would be ripe they used to cut it and bury it in a bog hole for two or three months. Then they used to take it out and bring it home and put it up on a loft to dry. When it would be dry they used to scutch it and spin it into yarn. Then they would bring it to Thomas Mullen and he used to weave the yarn into linen. For payment they used to bring him oaten meal and butter and eggs, and turf sometimes.
