    They came as far as Mr Tobin's Strand. There is a spring hole at the spot, but they did not know it and they went into the water. They went down the river untill they came near the hole, but they had not time to turn, because the current brought them back and there were drowned. Cumiskey was their name.
    Another disaster occurred at Carnaross a year ago. A woman was coming from mass on a bicycle, and as she was turning a bend a motor car struck her and killed her. She had to be carried into a house on a sheet.
