    lived for years but never grew any bigger.
    In Mr John Magovern's field just at Duffcastle crossroads there is a long stone standing upright.
    There are five marks on it supposed to represent the fingermarks of some ancient warrior.
    There are some strokes and dots on the bottom of the stone. It is supposed that this is Ogham writing.
    There are many forts near my home but there is not much known about them.
