  1. (continued from previous page)
    Mr Molloney another travelling man visits this district twice every year. When he came first he was very very poor but now he has got an ass and cart which brings him around from place to place.
    None of these "travelling folk" remain for longer than one night at a time in any place. Some are very welcome but others are not, as they are rude and impudent.
    They usually bring news and stories from other parts. Some are very talkative but others seldom speak.
