“In 98 many people were hanged...”
In '98 many people were hanged, shot, and murdered. There was a man living in Ballybeg named Thomas Ryan, in the year "98. One day about twenty Yeos were going up the Blackstairs mountain, and Tom saw them. He had a rifle in his hand, and he took a pink at the Yeos. He shot one of them.

There is a rumour out now, that some people are going to erect a monument over him.(continues on next page) - Collector
